Basically to make a long story short I am setting up a MySQL server out in another part of the country to tap into our accounting software since we are building a shopping cart on our website for our dealers to use in our network.

The IT Director out there wants to use 8.0 since he thinks 9.0 still "isn't right".

But, I am the one that will have to live with it.
What we have here is two IT Directors triyng to share a project.....
Me and Him....
Since it's his house over there and his network, I am trying to be tactful....

Anyway.....
What do you think about 9.0????
