I assume you mean it has a better "graphic" design by default. I agree.
FreeTrade
has none. :)
I think we could work with this and other projects on issues of features.
We ought
to strive to accommodate reasonable features. One thing I noticed that
surprised me
was the results of a poll on "What Should We Use For The Database
Abstraction? ":
<http://theexchangeproject.org/polls_view.php?polls_id=2&;>
Ignoring abstraction and coding for MySQL only is the overwhelming favorite.
I think that validates the direction we're going with FreeTrade. That is,
instead of
using a generic abstraction layer, we're developing our own interface
between
the screen/action modules and specialized database modules. This allows us
to
code in optimizations for one database while not interfering with others.
Furthermore,
interfacing with other databases will make FreeTrade more attractive, if
only for
political reasons.
