Thread: nice interface for mysql udf function
Hello I found http://www.mysqludf.org . This site looks much better than pgfoundry and it is more compact and usable for nondevelopers or non hard core developers. It is really good work. Regards Pavel Stehule

It is really good work. Well, it is quite different in spirit -- I think it is a complement to something like pgFoundry, not a supplement. It would be nice to have something like that for Pg functions. -- Alvaro Herrera http://www.CommandPrompt.com/ PostgreSQL Replication, Consulting, Custom Development, 24x7 support

I 100% agree next point. MySQL allows universal functions (with any arguments), so you can do some noce functions like JSON lib does. It would be nice in pg too.

It is really good work. Took about 4 minutes to load the frontpage from here. That's about the same as pgfoundry used to :-P More to the point, didn't we actually have a site like this before, that's gone because of lack of interest in maintaining it? But it's quite probable the interest is higher now if we create one now.. //Magnus

Any familiar with moveable type could maintain it without a problem. We don't have such site.

If we just want to get something off the ground to check interest and such, we can just use a section of the wiki. //Magnus

But it's > quite probable the interest is higher now if we create one now.. That was Roberto Mello's PL/pgSQL dictionary. Since he's involved with PostgreSQL again, he's made noises about re-creating it. Note that when we adopted GForge for pgFoundry, a "code snippets repository" was *supposed* to be one of its features. Unfortunately, we found out after migration that that feature didn't work and was planned for obsolesence :-( -- --Josh Josh Berkus PostgreSQL @ Sun San Francisco

We use long time PostgreSQL intensively and I am not sure if we can understand what really need BFU user or some normal user from outside of community. I miss * place for code fragments, in SQL, C or others * place for mature pgFoundry projects - pgFoundry is too much hardcore Regards Pavel Stehule > //Magnus >

It's important for contributors and for users. I have my wiki too and know some other places, but their are spreaded and there is no solid view. In other word, we need sort of "PostgreSQL Knowledge Base" Regards, Oleg _____________________________________________________________ Oleg Bartunov, Research Scientist, Head of AstroNet (www.astronet.ru), Sternberg Astronomical Institute, Moscow University, Russia Internet: oleg@sai.msu.su, http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/ phone: +007(495)939-16-83, +007(495)939-23-83
