[geeklog-users] GL2 database schema

[Paul Wolstenholme]

I was wondering as to whether any work has been done on the new 
database schema for GL2. Or, will it stay the same?

It strikes me that the current schema could be improved to add a bit 
more flexibility. Currently, events, links and stories are functionally 
independent. With the new version of geeklog it may be worth 
considering each of these as all types of documents (or stories, items) 
and design a schema around a typed document model. The queries would 
likely end up a bit more complicated but the benefits would offset the 
drawbacks. One benefit would be that it make it easier to add certain 
types of functionality. For example, it would make it easier to make a 
new link, event, etc a main page story item.

Just a thought.
