Closed, Open Source Share Compatibility Problems: Interesting take on the compatibility problems brought onto WordPress by the latest versions of Mysql running in “strict” mode as default. Especially poignant here because I see well greased programmers moving to the postgresql model because of a shift of ideologies of the mysql group. I should look into the added benefits that the strict model provides to the system.
Do you think wordpress will ever run on postgre?
Surely the answer to the whole backward compatibilty problem is for software developers to focus on allowing different versions to be installed simultaneously – a lot of problems go away.
Although it can be fiddly this can certainly be done with PHP providing all but one installation runs as CGI (Not sure about MySQL – I’ve never actually installed it).
