Hi guys,
Can anyone recommend a hosted CRM solution (except for Salesforce) that
has a CPAN module in order to easily access the API?
Thanks,
Andy

Oops, copy and paste error. More like:
$rs->search({ 'album_later.artist_id' => undef });

Hi guys,
I'm after some best-practice advice regarding SQL database design.
I have a table (say "artist", couldn't resist...) that has a one-to-many
relationship to another table (say "album"). The album table has a field
which references the artist table's ID. So one artist can have many
albums.

I'm a fan of Ansible, and am in the process of using it to deploy code

The main problem is that it seems to be a victim of its own success:

Okay, in which case I reckon there should be a warning when trying to
