The port of MediaWiki is going well: it is certainly usable, and is already being used by a number of sites. I would not say it is quite "competitive" yet as far as being ready to run Wikipedia, as the codebase has a lot of very mysql-specific stuff that has yet to be fixed/coded around. There are also a few lingering bugs, most related to the fact that the MediaWiki on Mysql stores dates as char(14). For the record, anyone using wikipgedia deserves the pain they get: it is deprecated. The latest version of MediaWiki itself is what should now be used: it will detect if you have Postgres upon installation. :) http://www.mediawiki.org/ - -- Greg Sabino Mullane [EMAIL PROTECTED] End Point Corporation PGP Key: 0x14964AC8 200702250925 http://biglumber.com/x/web?pk=2529DF6AB8F79407E94445B4BC9B906714964AC8 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQFF4ZyDvJuQZxSWSsgRA8c6AJ95oTX9YQ38VyPvFyhd54S3rHAZSACgh/tC uqcAmRFuRnMUdPL7sO/eoP0= =w2KL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
