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).
An avid fan of business, education, technology and finance. I lead a lean, highly focussed and capable team of Java Back End developers and Front End developers through a maze of complex software wizardry to fulfill the web maintenance needs of a large chemical manufacturer. As per Myers-Briggs Personality Types, I am an ESTJ. I pride in a project completed on time and according to plan. My hobbies include all kinds of technology, anything that I can taste and anything that goes fast or flies in the air. I like to read business books and comics in my spare time.
Do you think wordpress will ever run on postgre?
