Well obviously you have about 3 different ways to approach the problem: (1) rewrite sql-
ledger, (2) rewrite your mysql apps, or (3) write code that talks to both.  For what it's
worth the following is from the FAQ:

    "Although transactions are now supported with the InnoDB
    table handler the backend would still require a major
    rewrite to work with mySQL"

But maybe it's not that bad... best of luck...
