: I have been looking into Msql for a Web Content Management System. It
: is quite impressive. Msql Version 2.0 is in beta 6 at present, will be
: going to beta 7 shortly and should then be released a couple of weeks
: after that (as told to me by Hughes).

: It seems pretty robust and is easily fast enough for me.

: Try http://hughes.com.au/ for more information.

I use PostgreSQL myself for a web-site. I still use the old 1.09 version,
because I cannot upgrade there myself, but the developers are now at
version 6.0 which is much more capable and more stable too. Soon (within
2 weeks) version 6.1 will be released which has some performance
improvements too. It will also support multiple column indices!

Take a look at http://www.postgresql.org

ps. Does this really have to go to *that* many newsgroups?
