Thanks @daniel.pan, I appreciate the response. However, I do have concerns about this since DBs do change over time. I understand it can be a lot of work to validate different versions, but changes can break installations if the changes are not compatible with the application.
Case in point MySQL version 8:
Personally, I’m in no rush to move to new versions of software just because it’s new. I would prefer stability and can wait to update my DB versions. I think it would be helpful if you can share what DB versions Seafile’s implementation of it’s own software use for testing the application itself; this would be a valid guide for us users.
I hope you will consider this, thank you for your attention.
