2001-01-11 Thread Ralf R. Kotowski
My personal opinion on the documentatios is: It is good, however it is written in a very dry and technical manner which will be hard to understand for less technically inclined people. This I guess is normal since the docs are probably written by the same people that actually work on MySQL.

The fundimental problem lies in human nature craving social contact. Even us geeks need it. No matter how good a manual is, people will still come and ask first/read later just to hear (read, whatever)someone else say "Go read the damned manual". I think we all need to lighten up on this whole sub

If the manual was written any better, you'd put all those book publishers out of business. The reason this list has such a high volume of traffic might not be ambiguity of the online manual, rather the popularity of MySQL. The contents of the manual are more than sufficient, but the search could

I'm going to contribute to this discussion again. I want to counter some of your basic arguments. You seem to be trying to place MySQL newbies in the same level as computer newbies. IMHO, this is a very bad thing to do. Someone who is going to be working with MySQL is going to be using it for
