Near future is always vapor until it is real. As for business usage, old versions are what are already installed due to slow roll out cycles. Of course a very good reason is that they are examples of poor developer attitude. Many of the features we sometimes point out that have historically been missing are because of the attitude. Hell quite a few of the feature completions are due to merging other products code into the code base. This is the same reason why the postgres project has been known historically to be slow. The preference was for feature completeness and proper behavior. As I understand performance has only been a priority in the last several releases. Of course as some of us have experienced, the feature completeness and proper behavior allowed for a more graceful degradation than the same load on a default mysql deployment. > PPS, this is totally off-topic, and should be saved for some other > mailing list somewhere else, where people are actually interested in > talking about whose DB is bigger/faster/more colourful Well, this portion may have strayed from original topic far enough to no longer be appropriate for this list, but is still somewhat relevant to the original post. -- Steven Critchfield [EMAIL PROTECTED] KI4KTY _______________________________________________ Asterisk-Dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-dev
