What kind of community collaboration/involvement would be helpful to you? Once, a long, long time ago, I wrote quite a bit of bdb 1.85 code. At that time it WAS the current version :) I might actually remember a bit if I start working with it again. But what would be most useful to you? And if I may ask about a design decision: Why did you choose a hash structure? Perhaps if you have time you could give a little more info but whatever fits your schedule. Good luck on your project.
