Peter:

Have your ever worked with Progress?  It's ... interesting.

It's like no other database system I've ever seen, and, it's hardly
SQL-compliant.  At least when I worked on Progress 6.0 in '98.

Progress had much to gain by incorporating MySQL features and more-or-less
SQL-compliant features/syntax.

That's why the Progress database was possibly not good enough for NuSphere.

Best Regards,
Van
