It sounds like it'd be in my best interest to drop the RI for the
log, it's not terribly important in my application and would probably be
better than ``on delete set null.''
I'll give that a shot. Is there an easy way to drop the
constraint on this table, and perhaps a way to detect the constraint
programmatically? I try to keep migration kits that manage database
changes as I go for the millions of people I imagine are using my
application (imagination makes for better applications).
