[school-discuss] Choosing between Competing Open Source Databases

[David Bucknell <david@members.iteachnet.org>]

In his latest article on Open Source Schools, Patrick Bryant, the
programmer-turned-Ph.D. candidate in English, explains his thoughts on which
database he chose as the foundation on which to build his online super reference
to Emily Dickenson's poetry. He brings up the thorny licence isssues and also
the technical differences between mysql and postgres. Although mysql is
everywhere, should we be supporting postgres more widely?
