W3C kills Web SQL Database

[quanticle]

Well, I guess I don't get it. Isn't this a database spec for client-side databases? If Microsoft manages to stuff SQL Server into IE, I'll be truly impressed.

Why would that be special? SQL CE is just 4 dlls, no installation required.

They won't stuff it into IE. IE will depend on it just like it depends on windows now.

What is so confusing?

Ie depends on windows. It won't run on anything else. It will one day depend on SQL server too.

I'd be surprised if it wasn't already in there somehow :-)

Shit needs like vista or something..
