Hi,
It is funny, transactions with mySQL are almost old news now, but it still
is taking so long for people to change their thinking, get used to the idea.
mySQL even has two(is there a third?) different methods of dealing with
transactions, innodb or berkely db tables. I believe innodb even includes
forgeign keys which the mySQL people said they hated, but at last they are
there now. :)
If you want to find CFM people just post to the wwwac.org list. You will
find lots of out of work CF people there :)
