Covering all the non-mysql/sqlite we "support":
- DB2 has been unmaintained for ages, and personally I'm in favor
of dropping that one altogether.
- MSSQL would be nice to improve.
- Oracle support's not bad (maybe not perfect), freakolowsy would
know more.
- Postgres support needs major work. There's a lot of inconsistencies
between PG and the other backends (especially for install/upgrade). There *are* people here who care about PG.
This pretty much mirrors my thinking as well.
Microsoft has been very helpful in the past year by funding some of the Azure support and MSSQL seems like a natural fit there. I think we could get an instance on Azure to help test if we could fit that into Jenkins somehow.
Other than that, I can only add my +1 to dropping DB2 support. I don't know of it being used anywhere.
