[wxpython-users] a bit OT, db for deploying w/ wx on OS X?

[Peter Damoc]

The installer on OS X is rare. Most applications are distributed as a drag
and drop self contained app. You add a nice folder background and a link to
the Applications folder and you're done.

As for sqlite.... I believe is quite capable. If you think about using MySQL
for performance reasons... I think you're better off with SQLite. :)
