Subject: [greg-dev] Questions about Multi User and Database abstraction
Message-ID: <20071214181543.52d8bafa@localhost.localdomain>

Hello all

I am completely new to this project. So please feel free to flame away if
my questions were answered thousands of times before :)

Is there a reason why you did choose to write your own database
abstraction layer instead of using the one in Pear (or another one?). I am
asking this question because I am interested to run Gregarius with a
PostgreSQL backend.

And what is the current status concerning multi user functionality? Are
you still working on the design or are you implementing some features
already? I would need some multi user support and would am willing to at
least help you out in the design and architecture of the DB and code...

Thanks for your time and have a nice weekend.

Cheers,
Eidi

I don't know about the abstraction layer but I am the guy trying to keep 
the port to Postgres working.  I haven't updated it in about 6 months 
but it is in daily use here and elsewhere.

There are instructions for using postgres on the wiki:

Since I just started some vacation I will likely be merging up to the 
latest from the trunk.

Cheers
