Chris, Thanks for all the work on this. And nice summary! Just one comment:

Putting it out on the web isn't worth, IMHO. I fear it would turn into YAPackage that doesn't get updated and eventually causes more trouble than it's worth. Looking back over Joe's experience, my take it that the root cause of nearly all of the difficulties was the faulty MySQL 5.1.30 distribution, which of course he had no reason to assume was bad. If he had been lucky enough to start with the 5.0 dist he ended up with and followed the standard install of MySQLdb, the MySQL part of his app building would have been straightforward. I think documenting the problem with 5.1.30, which we've done in the pythonmac world and on the MySQL tracker, and if necessary "encouraging" a resolution over at MySQL are sufficient actions for now. In any case, just my $0.02. --Ned -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
