Re: [Condor-users] Do you have experience with Quill? I would like to talk with you.

Couple of gripes about quill:
I feel there is no development effort for it anymore which makes me
believe don't use it anymore
The schema isn't really optimized. I feel spending some time to make
it more relational will make it more efficient.
Postgresql is a great choice for it! But I prefer it run on an
embedded RELATIONAL database such as Derby
(http://db.apache.org/derby/)
The setup is NOT trivial. I wish it was easier to setup
There isn't really too much documentation on it. How is schedd
messages getting into quill? How does it parse these messages?
Remove oracle support -- I think if we remove this we can spend more
time enhancing a single DBMS
It would be great to have **everything**  in XML so its easy to parse
this data.  Everything including, schedd logs, negotiator logs,
MaserLogs, CollectorLogs, etc...
