Well guys, I really found your comments very interesting, and both of
you raised valid points.t I don't think I will comment on the Schema
vs Migrations debate too much, other than to say that Cake's Schema
shell is different to Migrations, but they are still there to achieve
the same purpose; which is to manage your database. And when managing
something, the tool being used needs to be as flexible and as powerful
as possible. At the moment, Schema is very limited as to what it can
do.

Keith really nailed all the points on the head, better than I ever
could. In fact Keith, would you mind if I used your comments as part
of a blog post on http://developingwithstyle.com?

> FWIW - Will use this when it has no pear dependency and does not use yaml

Well, you will be happy to know that the next version of Migrations
will support PHP arrays in migrations files, as well as YAML. So you
will have the choice. Also, MDB2 is being dumped in favour of a
DataDict (http://phplens.com/lens/adodb/docs-datadict.htm) which does
not rely on PEAR, and is much smaller.
