But I see from the whois records that you own it Oliver!
;-)

Either way, it's good to have it.

Thanks.

Just a note. My week of final exams is April 15th -> 19th, and then I am
taking a week off relaxing, after which, I will be resuming a lot of work
on phpMyAdmin.

Your database stored configuration should be ready in a month or so. It
presently exists as a table by the name of 'config' in my database, and
just works barely. I need to improve a lot of it still before it's ready
for any other development work, and I want to make it more extensible.

For work on it, there is one thing I need to ask about. Would it be
feasible to get the existing code written to use a pair of functions,
pma_getvariable($name) and pma_setvariable($name,$data) whenever we are
dealing with a configuration variable? That would be used to 'hide' the
configuration system from the other developers, and reduce possible
problems. I am using the PHP serialize/unserialize to store data in the
database presently.
