Hi John,

Let's put it in Tuesday.  If someone with a production course starts 
using the new mysql setup it might
be hard to back out if there are problems.  Thanks for following up on 
this -- improving the database speed is
a pretty important part of what I want to have available for my own 
courses this fall.  I think we'll have
enough usage over the summer to get the bugs out by then.

Talk to you soon.

Take care,

Mike
