Hi,

In a previous thread I was declared as a newbie end user, now I'll behave
like that :)

If I'll use the hosting service, I'll want to be able to use mysql and not
sqlite,
and other experimental solutions. You can say that this is silly of me, but,
as an end user, I have the right to be silly.  BTW I have bad experience
with sqlite.  It can happen that the database becomes corrupted somehow,
maybe because of not properly handled concurrent accesses, or a ctrl-c in
a bad moment, I don't know.  And mysql is faster too.  As a silly end user
I would prefer a separately existing permanency layer.  This is not a
problem
for active record, so I really don't get it why not to use it.  (It would
be enough
to have one database for all the users and let the databasename_tablename
structured tablenames solve the rest.  Actually the users don't need to know
where is the data stored and how, just use the ActiceRecord API, but they
need to know that it's fast enough and the data is securely stored.)

I'm sorry, I know I was not really constructive...

   ...end users are always silly...
