Hmm, I think which category I fall into changes from day to day. I find I'm
more receptive to your input when my blood sugar is normal, I've had a good
night's sleep and my bowels are empty.

The JSON DB is very useful, great for interBBS stuff as well as for local
applications. Those who are most comfortable with SQL may not be able to get
down with it right away, but it's worth considering where a DB is needed. Some
level of SQL support wouldn't be a bad thing for those who prefer to use it (I
don't feel the need for it,) but since Synchronet is typically used as a
small-scale / hobbyist platform, I imagine that the JSON DB is suitable for
most purposes that people put it to.
