All,
In r65404 [0], I have removed the current MSSQL implementation from
MediaWiki. It is
very broken, and is based on the older MSSQL driver for PHP which is no longer
supported. There is a native driver that should be be used; we already have a
bug open requesting support for [1].
Additionally, we have a new committer (CC'd this to him specifically) who is
planning to work on MSSQL support. A branch will probably be best for this, at
least initially. I'd probably like to see new-installer merged before we work on
trying to merge any new MSSQL implementations.
On a related note, does anyone know how functional the current IBM DB2
implementation is?
