RE: [Bodington-developers] MySQL support now in HEAD

Generalising the schema is a good idea, but bear in mind that we lose
backward compatibility at that point.

Subject: Re: [Bodington-developers] MySQL support now in HEAD

Greetings from flooding Southern California!

Aggie, all sounds +. If the peer marker is contained, then I would think =
a
commit to head would allow for testing and we could see what it does and
how well.

It could always roll back, non?

I think that Matthew has some strong points here about the MySQL stuff.
Surely it would be better to generalize and work from the *one* schema!
