As for 1.17 vs. trunk: your DB2 development work

1.17 is sort of being frozen, so only bugfixes and the like are merged
from trunk to the 1.17 branch. This means your DB2 work won't be part
of 1.17 (not will any other new features), but it'll be in 1.18 if
it's sufficiently stable by then.
I see no problem with backporting DB2 installer and DB class to 1.17
as long as it is clearly marked as experimental. Of course, we must
be much more cautious with other changes in core needed for proper DB2
support.
