<div dir="ltr">I personally could help update it if anyone felt the need to update it - I had a look around the code a couple of weeks ago and noticed how far it has lagged behind the rest. If there is demand I'll step forward... just a case of asking if anyone really wants it given the depth of support for MySQL and Postgres - both of which are cross-platform.<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Nov 18, 2014 at 8:42 PM, <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:verwijs.pc@gmail.com" target="_blank">verwijs.pc@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
<div>I hope someone comes forward to maintain the MSSQL code, I REALY liked working with it ... it gives a good alternative in MS_Windows for MySQL. Like on linux you have PostgreSQL (Witch is great!!) and MySQL. It just a matter of witch database is best suitable for opensimulator and features yet to come ....</div>

<br><br>MSSQL support was added to OpenSimulator many years ago. However, for more than 2 years, the only updates it has
<br>received are from core developers who don't use it and so who very likely don't test it (I'm certainly one of those).
<br>Indeed, as far as I know nobody on the OpenSim core team uses MSSQL.
<br><br>We are now at the point where a number of new facilities (e.g. bundled groups, offline IM) have no MSSQL implementation
<br>and bugs go unfixed.
<br><br>Therefore, I propose to remove MSSQL support for now unless someone steps forward to commit to implementing the missing
<br>functionality and fix MSSQL mantis bugs in a reasonable time frame. They also need to remain on hand to address any
<br>security issues that arise in the future, which is the thing that scares me most where no core dev uses a functionality.
<br><br>Even if the MSSQL adaptor is removed, if someone does step forward to support it in the future then it can be added back.
<br><br>Regards,
