No plans, but that would be nice. Others like Clustrix and NuoDB are more directly targeting the distributed SQL database market. Often we describe FoundationDB's core to people as more of a "storage substrate" than a database. It is possible to build an efficient SQL database as a layer on top of that substrate. For example, SQLite4 is choosing a transactional ordered key-value abstraction for its internal storage engine (which exactly matches FoundationDB's API). Of course, a SQL database is a big project involving a lot more than just a storage engine!
