Technically we do store hierarchical data in the database — each reply knows the reply it's replying to and the root post — but we only display replies as a flat list.

Servers can now run on SQLite as well as MySQL (that's the day's big server-side story -- see the server worknotes), and the dialog's last line follows along: it says "SQLite version" or "MySQL version" to match the actual engine, with the real version number either way. The server sends the engine name in a new databaseEngine member of the user-data record, and the client reads it as of v0.6.10. First seen live on scratchpad.rss.chat, the first server running on SQLite.
