I think the best thing would be to keep DBMS-specific code out of the default Asterisk install. There are several other very good free SQL DBMSes. One of them is actually supported by one of the world's largest software companies, SAP. SAP and MySQL signed an agreement where MySQL will co-market SAPDB and the name will change toi MaxDB. MaxDB is be marketed as a "step up" from MySQL to an "enterprize class" DBMS. It will be interresting to see how the MySQL people will define MySQL, they surely will not try and tell people it is "enterprize class". Perhaps they will be truthfull now and sell it as a light--weight product. Claiming integration with SAP would e a great marketing feature for Asterisk. "everyone" uses SAP. http://www.sapdb.org/7.4/sapdb_mysql.htm http://www.sapdb.org/ I use PostgreSQL and Oricle but have been following SAPDB for some time. > > > > ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- > > From: WipeOut <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Date: Wed, 12 Nov 2003 08:58:11 +0000 > > > > >I read on a site yesterday (wish I had saved it now.) that said > that > > >MySQL were re-visiting their new licence policy to make it > possible for > > >projects to use MySQL again.. > > > > > >Has anyone else seen this? > > > > > >This looks like good news, it means that the MySQL stuff may be > able to > > >be merged back into the main Asterisk source so we will not have > to > > >hassle with the addons anymore.. > > > > > >Later.. > > > > > >_______________________________________________ > > >Asterisk-Users mailing list > > >[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > >http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users > > > > > > > -- > > Costas Menico > > Meezon Software Corp > > 201-224-8111 > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > -- > > _______________________________________________ > > Asterisk-Users mailing list > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users > > > > _______________________________________________ > Asterisk-Users mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ===== Chris Albertson Home: 310-376-1029 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cell: 310-990-7550 Office: 310-336-5189 [EMAIL PROTECTED] KG6OMK __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
