07:18 imi appguru: I haven't heard regarding my PR https://github.com/minetest/minetest_game/pull/3030 since a while. Is it accepted? Do I need to still work on it?

09:01 pgimeno Zughy[m]: I don't think his comment applies to this backend, so no.
09:06 pgimeno These comments apply to an SQL-based application with queries distributed all along the app. I've been there, having to switch the engine once, and he's right in that case. But Minetest database drivers are database-specific and self-contained, and there are no SQL queries anywhere else, so his comments about the differences between the different backends do not apply to this case.
09:10 pgimeno As for his other argument that the environments that allow minetest to run also allow you to install other database backends, that's true, but if you already have an installation with MySQL, having to install and learn another database backend when you already have one is a burden, for you and for the server.

11:03 rubenwardy Yeah, the fact the backend is contained means there's not much architectural risk. It would just be maintenance risk
11:04 rubenwardy I'm not going to review that PR, I don't think it would be a good use of my time. Would rather work on polishing up the settings GUI
11:07 rubenwardy if you support a PR, you should at least plan to review it. Looks like nrz, lhofhansl, and x2048 are the supporters here
11:07 sfan5 I'll probably review it .. some time
11:07 rubenwardy haha
11:07 rubenwardy not saying they don't plan to review it
11:28 Zughy[m] I still don't understand why we should support something that requires more maintenance than the one we already provide
