[TYPO3-core] RFC: #0012381: Bug: Change definition of DB table fields

[Francois Suter]

Hi Ernesto,

> Stucki in 2006 initiated the movement of transitioning BLOBs to TEXTs
> where the content is clearly "text" (e.g. cached HTML content). At that
> phase it had to be clearly differenciated in which columns one expect
> text and where binary data (serialized PHP) is stored: those are still
> BLOBs (e.g. fe_session_data.content, fe_sessions.ses_data, fe_users.uc,
> all "l18n_diffsource" fields, etc).

Thanks for all these details. I'll give the change a spin later.

Cheers
