You seem to be conflating SQL and MySQL, which is confusing your thoughts and arguments somewhat. You are correct that my opinion that MySQL is a poor quality product that's worth avoiding is just that, opinion. It is however formed over many years as a professional developer having to use and manage other people's MySQL databases and watching how they tend to get corrupted over time, and I just don't trust it any more. I don't think I said that it was a bad idea to put a DNC list in a SQL database, although I did propose a more efficient alternative that might appeal to some people. If you're looking for a good Open Source database, Postgres is rather nice. -- PGP key ID E85DC776 - finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] for full key _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
