    2: TDBC: It has an ODBC driver and it looks to be more recent. A big
    plus is that it is available in 64-bit. However, it too does not show
    any developments in recent years.

    TDBC::ODBC is actively maintained as you can see in the timeline of its repository

    https://core.tcl-lang.org/tdbcodbc/timeline

    This is the place where you can create a ticket should there be problem.

    Hello,

    I would like to transfer an old application from Oracle to an ODBC-based database. The old application was built using a really old version of
    Oractl. Based on some research, available options include the following:

    1: tclodbc: It seems it is only available in 32-bit architecture. It
    doesn't look like it has seen any updates in terms of bug fixes or
    improvements for a long while.

    2: TDBC: It has an ODBC driver and it looks to be more recent. A big
    plus is that it is available in 64-bit. However, it too does not show
    any developments in recent years.

    My questions would be:

    Are these packages actively maintained? How do you report issues or put
    in requests for new features?
