While I was chatting with dejavu team over IRC and pointing bugs, fumanchu was busy fixing them asap. We had 3 revisions of dejavu in one hour and one new ticket.  It turned out that geniusql can not handle NULL in mysql timestamp type. Mysql’s timestamp is a badly designed data type, from the manual, “TIMESTAMP columns are NOT NULL by default, cannot contain NULL values, and assigning NULL assigns the current timestamp. However, a TIMESTAMP column can be allowed to contain NULL by declaring it with the NULL attribute”.  Now that’s a horrible way to design a datatype. To support both NULL and NOT NULL, some modifications are required in the geniusql and a ticket has been filed for the same.

So dejavu 2.0 is becoming stable day by day… Enjoy…
