relation.rb was a project I started to experiment in the space of mapping pure relational theory (with SQL as a backend) into Ruby. This directory include some code and a number of examples of what I was trying to achieve. I've put the project on hold, planning to instead integrate the same functionality into Ryan Pavlik's Criteria[1]. Please do not use relation.rb for any production purpose - it is written as a proof of concept, and put out only for discussion purposes. [1] Criteria can be found from http://raa.ruby-lang.org/list.rhtml?name=criteria
