| 39 | Well you shouldn't be. Services databases in SQL format would be | |
| 40 | wonderful, but not from a backup point of view - it's easy to set up | |
| 41 | a regular copy of the databases to elsewhere. | |
| 42 | ||
| 43 | No, the big win with such a thing is that you can interface it to | |
| 44 | many other tools. For example, it would be easy to make a web page | |
| 45 | where every user can see their access in different channels, what | |
| 46 | memos they have etc etc, all on one page instead of through | |
| 47 | executing many different IRC commands. | |
| 48 | ||
| 49 | But, it would be a lot of work for the benefit of comparatively few | |
| 50 | people (I would imagine most users of ircservices are not that | |
| 51 | bothered about such things). | |
| 52 | ||
| 53 | It probably isn't even as simple a *concept* as replacing access to | |
| 54 | data structures in memory with access to a database, because at the | |
| 55 | moment the only thing that can modify the databases whilst services | |
| 56 | is running, is services itself. If a database were to be used to | |
| 57 | full potential, other tools and interfaces could well be altering | |
| 58 | the databases at any time without services knowledge. | |
| 59 | ||
| 60 | If only I had the time. :) | |
