OpenNMS
OpenNMS is the first enterprise-grade network management platform developed using the open source model. The three main functional areas of OpenNMS are service polling, which monitors services on the network and reports on their "service level"; data collection from the remote systems via SNMP in order to measure the performance of the network; and a system for event management and notifications.

It's pretty obvious you don't understand databases. OpenNMS is targeting an Enterprise Solution. Part of that need is performance. Real databases support stored procedures because they can significantly save on both CPU and disk bandwidth. Use of stored procedures also ensures a consistent API is exposed to would-be developers.
Since you're mandating a request of MySQL plus insisting the use of stored procedures should be abandoned, you should really be looking at alternate solutions since your mandates are wholly incompatible with an Enterprise quality solution.

That's pretty funny. This is like saying we can't can't buy a car until it explodes when you can least afford it. Only after it constantly explodes will you consider buying the vehicle.
Hehehe...too funny. Shesh...just about any DB is going to prove more reliable and robust than MySQL. There is a reason why real DBAs consider MySQL to be trash...because it is. It lacks features, teaches poor SQL coding habits, isn't reliable, scales like crap, so on and so on. Seriously...if you consider MySQL to be a mandatory feature then you absolutely are not looking for an Enterprise Solution. Period.

OK; it seems somewhat overkill to use stored procedures for something like this, and it comes with the penalty of portability.
I guess we'll just have to wait or use something else, such is life in the world of OS.
Thanks!

Unknown at the moment. We are getting ready to release 1.3.0 (before LinuxWorld Expo in August) which adds SNMPv3 support, alarms and JMX monitoring.
We use some stored procedures that MySQL did not support prior to 5, which is one of the reasons the movement to MySQL would be difficult. The OpenNMS Group (www.opennms.com) provides commercial support and services for OpenNMS, and they might be able to spec a project for you to support MySQL if the need is immediate.

What's the plan for 2.0.. release date.. roadmap.. ?
Being able to use MySQL is essential to us.
