anyhow good luck - and thanks for the explanation glenn > Apparently this was brought to the attention of the mysql folks but I > don't know the status on that these days ... > > Iain > > > > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
