Database Work
For me, outside of testing and enhancing the MOStlyCE editor, this week has been full of reviewing new code and playing with Mambo on various database systems. A long term goal of Mambo is to enable support for a number of different database systems. In past surveys you've asked for it and we intend to deliver it. As a first step toward multi-database support I decided to start porting Mambo's database structure to several different database systems. My mission here is to get at least the database side of Mambo up and running on PostgreSQL, Oracle, and SQlite in the not so distant future. I have successfully gotten the database and sample data going on PostgreSQL and now it's on to Oracle. Obviously there is still a lot of work to be done on the application side to make it all work, but rest assured we'll get there. We all know it runs well on MySQL, but in some companies (like the one I work for) that is just not an option. -cauld |
The core dev team has been quite busy this week. We released a security patch a few days ago. I hope everyone saw this and has had a chance to either patch or upgrade their sites. If not, I would encourage you to do so. Work continues on our refinement of the 4.6 release. Many important tasks are underway and the code is looking better with each passing day. | <Previous | Next> |
