Bringing MySQL compatibility to PostgreSQL
Source: NewsForge
Despite having a strong feature set and excellent performance and stability, PostgreSQL lags significantly behind MySQL in one key area: Many more open source projects support MySQL than PostgreSQL. That limits PostgreSQL adoption to some extent because many users choose MySQL not because it's superior to PostgreSQL, but because their favorite open source project supports only MySQL.
Kings-Lynne, a PostgreSQL developer is working on a MySQL compatibility project for PostgreSQL that may allow people to utilize PostgreSQL with software that normally requires a MySQL database.
Why take all this time to create compatibility functions, instead of just adding support for PostgreSQL? PostgreSQL core member Berkus said that it would be better if projects supported PostgreSQL natively, but that's not likely to happen. "Let's face it, there's probably 1,000 Web projects on SourceForge that don't even support MySQL4 features yet. Asking these projects -- many of which have a single part-time developer -- to support multiple database systems will get us laughed at, at best."

My conference named: "Las Tecnologias de la Informacion como Estrategia competitiva para PyMEs" covers many concepts about
the benefits of implant a IT strategy. The talk (in non-technical terms) shows how the adoption of IT benefits the lives of all citizens, not only computer techies.
I began to demonstrate for the audience how important the IT to make better your competition in the market, next i explained what made this Technology
as good strategy, Finally, i concluded by confirming that the IT are extremely relevant to our future. The conversion of all services to digital technology makes
information management and archival more and more important in every budget.
The conference was presented in Semara Regional PyMEs Sur - Sureste 2005 in the "Centro de Convenciones Coatzacoalcos". The event was sponsored by Secretaria de Economia.

The GULEV 2005 Photo Gallery is now available. The event was sponsored by the Coatzacoalcos goverment, the principal
has vary interest by the Free Software.
Many conferences was interesting, but for me the better were of Sandino Araico: "El Falso Sentido de la Seguridad" and
Bruce Monjiam: "Drive your own car", the Monjiam talks shows how the Internet is another
of those technology changes that will dramatically alter the software world.
Indeed, Bruce explained about the new version the PostgreSQL: What is New in 8.1. Additionaly, i put the link about a good and basic article
of What is PostgreSQL.

Here is the explain about the Authentication Data Storage:
Many applications place this file inside web readable directories and give it a non-PHP extension—.inc is a popular choice. Since .inc is typically not
configured to be interpreted as a PHP script, the web browser displays such a file as plain-text
for all to see.
One solution to this problem uses the web server’s own facilities, such as .htaccess in
Apache, to deny access to certain files. As an example, this directive denies access to all files
that end (notice the $) with the string .inc, for example:
< Files ~ “\.inc$”>
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
< /Files>
Alternatively, you can make PHP treat .inc files as scripts or simply change the extension of
your configuration files to .php or, better yet, .inc.php, which denotes that the file is an include
file.
