[Opensim-dev] db4o removal

[Aldon Hynes]

I hear the concerns about it not being actively maintained.  However, some
of us running on funkier platforms don't have SQLite working and it would be
nice to have db40 support maintained as long as possible.

Lacking that, whould there be some sort of
"OpenSim.Framework.Data.Null.dll" that would be available for standalong
implementations?

My two cents.

db4o stopped being used as a default for OpenSim by 0.4, and with all
the work going on in the tree around data storage, I think it makes a
lot of sense to just straight up remove all the db4o related code, as it
isn't actively maintained, and is just a way for a new user to hurt
themselves.

If there are objects, speak now.  Otherwise I'll do that purge this
weekend.

There is no silver bullet.  Plus, werewolves make better neighbors
than zombies, and they tend to keep the vampire population down.
