This is bound to go off topic.. But what the heck loads of people visit.

SitePoint has released a 19page in-depth Article on PHP5 with SQL Lite

SQL Lite if you didnt know is the database that is gonna be used instead of MySQL due to MySQL changing there Licence

erm i didn't know about that but i suspected something when MySQL bought back the SAPDB from SAP... moving to business depth are we?

Does anyone have a link to SQL Lite so I don't have to type it in google? (which would have taken a 10th of the time it took me to post this)

SQL Lite appears to be a querrying tool... not a db... help?

I havent seen SQLite but it seems to be a DB.. Im not sure on how it works. But one of the examples they showed was it saved the information into a directory you specify..

Im not sure i like it, but i cant say much else as i havent really used it.

as far as i can tell it just uses a simple SQL engine to use flat files as DB's..........

My question: who (server-admin-wise) really gives a rats ass about SQL Lite? Seriously, I'd like to know. I've yet to see any reports that MySQL cannot be used with PHP5, I'm under the impression its just that the built-in client libraries are no longer bundled (but you can still build against existing libmysqlclient, etc...). Am I misinformed? Assuming that MySQL can still be used, I don't see why most admins would bother switching their users. Enlightenment anyone?
