[rabbitmq-discuss] RabbitMQ XMPP gateway and 1.5.x: mnesia table renaming needed

Mon Jan 19 18:08:33 GMT 2009

Thanks, Tony! I can hack the table names so I can test.

Wonder if either/both projects should use a prefix (rmq_, ejb_) on table
names ... part of me thinks it's overkill, but it I end up using mnesia
tables in my plugin, I think I'll prefix names ...
