I think we'll try to do something regarding this asap 5.0 gets in
production mode (and when we'll have time, whichever comes first ;)
Our first idea is to add a stored procedure triggered on update of a
particular table, then the stored procedure would call an UDF-function
which would do the job. (just ping a particular port on a remote server,
to force it update that table). As anyone been doing something like this ?
At the moment we're just polling the whole table every 5 seconds (not a
big table less than 500 records)
