SugarCRM is derived from the Mambo CMS, and we've just ported it to
using ADOdb for database abstraction. Gosh it feels good to finally
say it! :-D
Anywhoo, depending on how early SugarCRM forked from Mambo, we
introduced a database class in the 4.5.x series that makes it somewhat
straightforward to implement for other databases. I have no idea what
SugarCRM has done in this regard, or if they have taken any efforts to
consolidate their SQL statements into a class for easier migration.
Would be interested in hearing from SugarCRM about their plans in this
regard, and will hunt them down next week at LinuxWorld in SFO.
