A better decision would have been to use db-abstraction in the core, but announce support only for a single database, MySql if that is your choice. Solve the supportability issue by decree, rather than limiting the scope of the software's appeal. At least then you aren't walling the software off from others who might be interested in different sorts of mashups which might prove interesting to the community.
SlimServer does exactly that, using DBIx::Class for all the database O/RM stuff. The schema itself (in the SQL/ directory) would need to be rewritten, but not too much more, I think. You could perhaps have taken a peek at the code before ranting. :) - Jacob _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
