We stick to ANSI SQL because that is the most portable solution. It makes that Drupal works with both MySQL and PostgreSQL without any hacks. Hopefully, it also means that, in future, we can support databases like Oracle with fewer pains. One day, it might turn out to be really important, but until then, it's just theory, of course. :-) -- Dries Buytaert :: http://www.buytaert.net/
