I think there was always some desire to add MySQL access to OGo. The usual result is that installing PostgreSQL is a viable option given that writing a MySQL adaptor would take some week or two. Actually I think there is a MySQL adaptor for the current gnustep-db2 framework. Maybe this could be ported to the SOPE variant of gnustep-db1. Personally I prefer having a SQLite adaptor before MySQL. This gives an actual practical value (no DB install required). > I must add a caveat also.

The first step would be to write a MySQL database create script based on the PostgreSQL one (there are certainly some incompatibilities).
