Well, AR is certainly more popular and more people will be able to help you if you run into problems. That said, Sequel is fairly mature software, so bugs aren't very frequent, and if you do have a question after reading the documentation, you are very likely to get a response from the lead developer (me) if you post the question here. So it's a trade off. Thanks, Jeremy -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sequel-talk" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
