NEVER!
Once I've built a PG based middle tear with an apache module that could in cooperation be a complete virtual
host inside of a DB. Including inbound Tcl scripting, DB-access, dynamic images and whatnot. Never finished that
workuntil AOL-Server 3.0 appeared, at which point I considered my product "trashwork".
Some of the sources I looked at (and learned alot from) was the PHP module. So I know what kind of programmer
builtthat.
Maybe someone of the PG community should spend some time building a better PHP coupling and contribute
to that project. And there are more such projects out that need a helping hand from our side.
