Greetings Chuck,
Probably true on Georg. I have not seen or heard from him in while, and I
miss him. Anywho, since I am working out in South-Eastern California and
Frontbase has an U.S. Office in Foothills, CA it would be nice to meet the
guys (and gals) who bring us this great software. Also, since they are kind
of in the mid-point for SoCal WebObjects developers, it would be nice to
talk them into hosting a WO gathering similar to WO-Nova.
Any who, do you know if Georg or anyone has done straight migration from
MySQL to Frontbase. I would guess that it would be a SQL dump from MySQL
to Frontbase, but I have never tried it. And, Peter Pan is never too old
for the first time on these things.
Later,
