The version we MUST use is at least 1.99.1, for download in
http://www.gnome-db.org/Download

The stable version doen't support most of the objects like GdaQuery,
Dictionary and so; I recommend to use the lastest Beta2 version
(1.99.1), I'm contributing in the project and "see" the benefits of
use a architecture based in Objects like GObject does, it's simple and
quick to extend.

If any one want to lear how to use GdaQuery and most of the most
advanced characteristics in GDA you can read the documentation, and
inspect the code in the convenient functions I'd created (you can find
them in libgda/gda-init.c)

How could we manage about this to desing over a OO using GObject.

Sad, a Design over a Object could give GC a powerfull framework and a
clear design.
