I haven't paid any real attention to comp.databases for years so perhaps I am not qualified to enumerate differences. That said, I would expect the difference in the names probably reflects the difference in the content.

I expect you will find greater support for hackish kludges in comp.databases than in comp.databases.theory Here, you will find greater support for discussing the underlying mathematics.

You will also find considerable overlap between the two groups so if in doubt cross-post to both groups. Received on Fri Apr 27 2007 - 13:00:06 CDT
