Re: [Bug-gne]API

[Rob Scott]

??
what would the getAID do?
why do we need pooldb stuff for the api?
ditto userdb.
ditto trackingdb.
etc..

ie- wtf???

the api wouldnt be used for gne's siite, i think that can be kept pretty 
much as it is now.
what it would be used for is for other ppl (if we were a business i would 
call them third parties)
to be able to access gne stuff.

not add articles or anything.

??

did u just go thru the db creating a function for every field?
im _really_ confused.

maybe thats coz its still too hot.


????????????????
