[rt-users] RT config files different instances

[Ruslan Zakirov]

Hi,

Sorry for delay. Didn't know how to describe situation.

1) Don't use REST for anything except creating and replying to
tickets. REST needs complete rewrite.

2) Anything that does reporting via higher level than perl API will
suffer performance issues at some point.

3) You can write a perl program that talks to one set of RT libraries
at a moment.

4) You can write a program that can work with 3.8 API and 4.0 API.

5) Never use RT libraries that don't match DB.
