Beside a complete code rewrite in some good framework for which i lack time, here some other ideas which could be implemented next:
improve branch graph as it is not readable
create paper on deltasql concepts with LaTex as PDF
remove HEAD exception from source code. To do so, each project needs to be created with a HEAD attached. Sorting of branches with HEAD first done with new ishead field on table tbbranch
once HEAD exception is removed, rewrite merge algorithm for two branches
deltasql backend: create an abstraction layer (like Hybernate), so that other databases can back it (e.g. PostgreSQL, the best one!)
add customizable fields to scripts
change deltasql to support multiple companies and registering new users from the internet
output of pages as XML->XSLT->HTML with stylesheets and sql2xml library
I would like to see the restriction on using MySQL as the backend storage removed. We exclusively use Postgres for all our applications and having to install MySQL is a big annoyance.

hi thomas, i added your request to the wishlist. I wonder if you are using the PostgreSQL verification script? i mean the one at the beginning SELECT DELTASQL_VERIFY_SCHEMA(400, 'HEAD', 'myProject'). This because I developed once, and tested it a bit, but never heard of anyone having it in production... for Postgres: i never used it too much, but once i installed the European maps from www.openstreetmap.org on an Ubuntu server. It was Postgres with spatial and i really was impressed positively!

And what would you like to see in deltasql next?

hi, the deltasql is a great work! I have been trying it the last week, and I think it will help me a lot. Thanks for you guys.
For wishlist, it would be much better that there is a branch graph in which the project evolution can be shown.
hi Xiaobo,
thank you for your encouragement.
In fact the branch graph would need an improvement as it is not readable.
ciao :-)
yeah! i found the branch graph and it works. thanks.
