[gdal-dev] New OGR driver for DB2 Spatial support

[David Adler]

I am close to finished with this driver which was delayed significantly 
getting access to a DB2 for z/OS test environment to verify that it 
works across IBM DB2 platforms.

What is the proper way to handle authorship in the source code? The DB2 
driver is based on the MS SQL driver with significant changes to support 
the DB2 environment. Current prologues have information like:

I've mostly been testing using the apps test_ogrsf, ogr2ogr and ogrinfo.

Is there any documentation on the autotest system? It was interesting to 
find that there was a 2003 DB2 test driver for DB2 V7 - we are now at V10.5.

David
