Re: [phpesp-dev] group (realm) name

[James E. F. <jf...@uv...>]

Virtually all character limits in phpESP are arbitrary.  Performance 
wise, you will probably do better with char() types than varchar() if 
the column is used for WHERE criteria.  Some limits (field name length = 
10) are cruft from the DBF export option, which doesn't exist in the 
main branch anymore (or ever?).  I do not forsee any problems with 
adjusting any field lengths to suit your need (except possible performance).
