	I have suggested this on the features for v.8 thread. However maybe a database abstratcion layer as this will make it easier. The poll would have been better if it was just yes or no

	this has been talked over and over. but with the ammount of time, differences, its not worth it, as there are plently more abd better PHP forums that run on My SQL. with the time it would take to get a mySQL version up to the current and V8 standards, it would be at least a year or more and thats without developement on existing applications.

	There will not be a mySQL server version, unless a myODBC driver is released that fully supports ADO. At the moment the myOBDC driver lacks so may of the features of ADO that nearly every file would have to be re-written to support mySQL which would also mean the forum engine wouldn't performance as fast and wouldn't be as secure.

	The Access ODBC driver supports ADO so you can use recordset.update or recordset.delete. myODBC does not or not fully. So if you were to change the current access version to mySQL you would have to update just about every update query and every delete query that wwf uses. That would be quite a few.
