Please read >those and bash them into place for this drawing board. Perhaps the conversation has more pertinence in the current light? I have read many posts about default bundling and agree with many. However, some things get bundled, some others do not. I agree with Rasmus and Sterling regarding SQLite. I also agree than unbundling mysql is a good idea in the present circumstance (whereas previously there was no reason). It doesn't seem a cut-and-dried situation. I would just like to know what the arguments regarding the bundling of postgres are. If they've been posted before then I'll read them. > That discussion is mostly non public and will not become public until we can > find a consensus/solution togeter with MySQL on LinuxTag during july. Sorry, it appeared from what Zeev had said that this was a matter of historical record.
