Re: Databases: to Postgres
TextBook is official and hosted at TextDrive as is TextGarden and The Resource Centre. As someone who has been helping out on the forum for some while now I have to say that since TXP 4* was released enquiries here have dropped off quite dramatically. Most of the questions are more to do with HTML and CSS than anything else and they have nothing to do with TXP. Plus there are problems with servers and hosts which again have nothing to do with TXP. Of course, we try and answer them because we are helpful like that.
Those questions which are to do with TXP tend to be someone trying to do something a bit extraordinary or trying to do something that TXP just doesn’t do – yet. Again we try to help.
Quite frankly, if someone is going to write an article like that, it might be helpful if they took their blindfold off first! I wouldn’t mind if the facts were straight but he’s made no effort to find things for himself which is becoming somewhat typical these days. And yes, I’m pissed off!

Re: Databases: to Postgres
but my biggest concern at the moment is textile, which is far from being
documented well, and not very good either (sad but true: try putting images
into a table for example) so that’s my first target to make better.
We’re testing some new changes here. Bug reports help.

Re: Databases: to Postgres
this just came in.
of course i am not talking about replacing mysql…
just a small little dropdown on the install page
db: mysql or postgres (and sqlite) :)
i know it’s just talk so far, but supporting postgres would be just as good
as moving to the BSD license.
i will look into this shortly, i am starting some new sites anyway.
