Hi Joshua,Eugene, Joshua, you are of course right. At the same time when there is someone like me trying to replace existing solutions in place (which are all under IIS and MSSQL). Declaring one day company-wide switch to a different SQL server, different operating system and different framework/language, well that takes more courage than I have :-). I much prefer to go easy on it and first give everybody chance to see why django is great. Therefore MSSQL and IIS support is important to me.
Now having said that there is no reason why the core developers should worry about it. I need it and I should help to build it. Eugene seems to have some ideas and I would appreciate some direction and discussion on this topic. Maybe there is something either I or somebody else can do. The MSSQL support seems to be most pressing to me. Anybody else interested? j On 9/26/05, Joshua D. Drake <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Just to throw in my two cents here.
