Re: Filemaker Pro Server 5.0

Oh.. MySql would be sooooo sweet. We're running everything from email to
RADIUS to discussion groups in MySQL. There are literally hundreds of tools
available to view/edit MySQL DBs. It's very, very fast (comparable to Oracle
on many levels) and as long as you are not "selling" the databse engine, it's
more or less free. This would make our lives so much easier here. We could
link OG and RADIUS together and/or RADIUS could be implemented into OG for a
completely seemless solution. Hehe, you could bill overages in real time! :)
We'd be more that happy to help in the development for OG in a MySQL
environment if Shawn is even remotely considering that.

Filemaker is quite nice, but this licensing is somewhat of a pain. I
personally like the setup now, but migrating to 5.0 looks like a nightmare.
And yes, we just bought FM Server 3.0 and FM Pro 4.1.
