Yeah, and in most other cases I'd agree, but there's just so _darned_ much already situated around MySQL; so many programs, APIs and things. Look at PHP and python bindings and such. I don't dislike SQLite, it's clever, and efficient but with so many things on (at least) Fedora already using it, it seems a shame to go re-invent the wheel. It would bring up another level of incompatibility that just doesn't have to be.
I was under the impression that PHP embedded a copy of SQLite in it's interpreter that you could use natively. I'm positive Python has SQLite bindings. I know Perl does. I don't see how MySQL has any more support other than apps locked into it. How is SQLite reinventing the wheel?
In any case, a move to a SQL database should be a move to any SQL database; RB (or any app), shouldn't tie you down to the developer's choice of DB engines.
