RLIB 1.1.1 RELEASED

Announcing RLIB 1.1.1 - We're gonna party like its your birthday

RLIB 1.1.1 is the result of weeks of intensive work, to make RLIB more usable for more people. First off, support for postgresql has been added. All database back ends (mysql, postgre) are separate libraries now. PHP support is also a separate library now. This means you can use RLIB from c/c++ as well now. But perhaps the most exciting feature in RLIB 1.1.1 is the ability to have multiple datasources. Forinstnace, if you have a two mysql databases, and one postgre on different servers.. you can use rlib to make reports from all the datasources.

RLIB 1.1.1 is a beta release, it should be as stable as RLIB 1.0.2, but no promises. don't use it on production servers.

There are a few more exciting changes to look forward to in RLIB 1.2.0:
Precompiled XML files for faster reports
Informix Backend
PYTHON bindings
PERL bindings

Note: RLIB's XML syntax did not change at all, but the RLIB api changed slightly in order to allow for the new ability to have multiple/different datasources.

Also: We need some kind people to help us out by making examples and documenting...
