The <span class="application"><span class="emphasis"><em>CLSQL</em></span></span> project was started by Kevin M. Rosenberg in 2001 to
support SQL access on multiple Common Lisp implementations using
the <span class="application"><span class="emphasis"><em>UFFI</em></span></span> library. The initial code was based substantially on
Pierre R. Mai's excellent <span class="application"><span class="emphasis"><em>MaiSQL</em></span></span> package. In late 2003, the
<span class="application">UncommonSQL</span> library was orphaned by its author, onShore Development,
Inc. In April 2004, Marcus Pearce ported the <span class="application">UncommonSQL</span> library to
<span class="application"><span class="emphasis"><em>CLSQL</em></span></span>. The <span class="application">UncommonSQL</span> library provides a <span class="application">CommonSQL</span>-compatible
API for <span class="application"><span class="emphasis"><em>CLSQL</em></span></span>.
</p><p>The main changes from <span class="application"><span class="emphasis"><em>MaiSQL</em></span></span> and <span class="application">UncommonSQL</span> are:
