I'm dying to find out how well it will perform in contrast to the MS platfo=
rm=20
and how much code needs changing. All indications are good so far with 50=20
straight reads from the content database (MS SQL Server 2000 on a clapped o=
ut=20
P II 400 with a shitty IDE hard drive) taking less than 2.5 seconds to=20
execute in total. The ASPX part is going to be the challenging section I=20
suspect. If I can get good performance from Apache and the mod required to =
do=20
ASPX then they might at least consider using Linux/Apache at work rather th=
an=20
being just an MS shop. Then it's only a push and a shove towards Open=20
Sourcing the CMS and acting as consultants for configuring and utilising it=
=20
rather than trying to sell a CMS in a crowded marketplace.

Anyway, worst case is once I finish the conversion they don't care about it=
=2E I=20
still get to keep using it for myself for my site and my wife's site but ca=
n=20
host in on my XBox instead of a Windows server with a license fee to pay th=
at=20
would leave me poor for months.

The really hard part would be converting the ~250 stored procedures over to=
=20
work on Postgres/mySQL instead of MS SQL...not looking forward to that one.
