SimpleTicket and Postgresql
We have had a couple of questions on support for databases other than MySQL. We posted a response on the mailing list but thought that it might be helpful to list here as well.
The short answer is that once the rails clean-up happens (target date May 1st) any database supported by Rails should work with SimpleTicket. Today we have specific MySQL calls (a rails no-no) in SimpleTicket, our rails clean-up should remove these and
make any compatible database work with the program. For more information visit:

Our first major code release is scheduled for May 1st (we have never met a release date before, but we are hopeful) and this release should be friendlier to rails novices.

Will this release be available as a standalone downloadable package on SourceForge? I ask this mainly because I am still unable to fully understand the current release system.
