Since we have learned that MySQL is not the best solution for our purpose - i.e. tools with other backends get a better performance on standard hardware -, the replacement of MySQL is on our roadmap. > Since ALOIS is written in Ruby, it might be easy enough to add a > database-independence layer to remove the hard dependency on MySQL. Craig, I too think it is a very good idea to implement a database-independent layer. Even more, it is my designated goal to add APIs to all of the five moduls, so we get more flexibility. > Not a reason to turn away the project. Happy to hear that! Best regards Urs
