--- Comment #21 from Lionel Elie Mamane <lio...@mamane.lu> --- (In reply to Florian Reisinger from comment #15) > If you care to explain why > > - removing a DB backend without deprication notice > - keeping the HSQLDB data in the ODB file WITHOUT possibility to open it > with an old version of LibreOffice > - hushing the transition to the new database backend > > is a good idea. It is not, and will not happen. Please, there was some over-enthusiasm, things got committed to master, they were discussed and the plan was established. Do not take every commit to the master branch as a firm, well thought out, plan. Let's stop excoriating this transitory situation and focus on the reasonable plan. > - Putting it in the 6.0 release notes is impossible - already released. > --> Mark it for removal in 6.1 with removal in 6.2 / 6.3 My current thought is: deprecation when Firebird is in good shape (cf the tracker bug for that), and removal at least one major distro LTS cycle after that. > --> New databases will be created with Firebird (by default?) in 6.1 _If_ the Firebird driver is in a good enough shape, which we have good hope it will be. > - Why keep the old data in the file? > --> Creating a new file with just Firebird data makes more sense as the > end user is not able to recover the data! Yes. > - Why do we need to get rid of HSQLDB so quickly? We don't. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Libreoffice-ux-advise mailing list Libreoffice-ux-advise@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-ux-advise
