Granted it has been a while since I dealt with mysql licensing as it was too poor a performer for our mix of queries. I seem to remember that mysql made a stink recently about the dual licensing of asterisk. That was the cause of the mysql code getting pulled and placed in the add-ons sections so the core didn't have any licensing issues. -- Steven Critchfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Users mailing list Asterisk-Users@lists.digium.com http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
