WordPress 2.0 Released
cyberchucktx writes "Version 2.0 of the Wordpress open source blogging software has now been released." From the post: "In the past if you were linking to a number of posts or pinging a lot of update services, your posting time could appear to slow to a crawl even though everything was instantly done on the backend. We've modified how this works now so posting should be near-instantaneous, like everything else in WordPress."
"Why not support for PostgreSQL? How hard can it possibly to write code that supports more then DB? It's unbelievable that almost no blogging software supports a real RDBM."
WordPress is open source. This means that if you like, you can contribute by making the improvements yourself. That's how open source software tends to be improved... each contributor adds the features that they would like to see.
At the very least, you should give it a try. If you're right, and adding PostGRE is the trivial task that you imply, then it should be a snap, and WordPress will be the better for it. If it turns out to be a little too daunting, then you'll have answered your own question of why it hasn't yet been done.
Sitting in my day care, the art is decopainted.
wait until the first point release before deploying to important systems.
It's blogging software. How important can any of the systems be?
