Hi all,

Just read my copy of eWeek, and it seems that a state government has used
MySQL for a public access rules and regulations database:

http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,3959,808852,00.asp

quote:

"Rhode Island put itself on the cutting edge of hot-technology uptake last
year when it became one of the first state governments to get beyond
traditional government conservatism and implement open-source technology.
The gamble is paying off: The bill for the state's rules and regulations
database came in at $40,000—only $6,000 of which was hardware costs—and took
one consultant four months working only two days a week to complete."

Not a big user, but good to see a state government openly use MySQL.
