The docs for database server support are not fully up to date. Fix that.
- PostgreSQL docs are currently written for 9.5 and still have content for pljava. They (both platforms) should be updated for the latest levels (14 through 17?) and the pljava stuff should be completely removed.
- MariaDB
- support is rudimentary (not at the same level as PostgreSQL)
- doesn't explain about lenient vs stict dialects (what are they, why do you choose one? actually we should limit lenient to that one customer only because it is a mess that we don't want to support long term
- needs details on later versions
- needs lots of detail on limitations
- shouldn't define a stupid encoding
- add details for Windows
- SQLServer will need to be written to the above level of expectations (as part of the various tasks).
All of the above should have content that answers these questions:
- What is the set of supported versions?
- What is the minimum version for support?
- What are the minimum hardware and software requirements for implementation?
- How to install and configure. This should list required configuration as well as any recommended configuration.
- What 4GL compatibility limitations exist?
