[Asterisk-Dev] setting up a good user database for asterisk?

[Roy Sigurd Karlsbakk]

hi

i've been thinking of setting up realtime to do a pretty large setup,  
and it'd be nice to be able to create a user once and then have the  
user everywhere it'll be nedded (voicemail, sip, iax etc). doing this  
with the standard table scheme in asterisk would create a very bad  
table design (forget normalisation), so instead, one should create a  
normalised database with views for the asterisk realtime  
'tables' (effectively removing mysql stable/4.x as an option).

have anyone done this before?
any comments?
