 So what other options are there for a sensibly licensed, in-process 
database ?


 Does PostgreSQL do it - could we run the server in a thread 
cross-platform, can we get its data into a file ? ;-) I guess we should 
prolly re-do the analysis of alternatives here to work out if there is a 
sensible way forward; but that belongs on the dev-list - and it's a big 
job to even know what we might want to do.


Do we really need an embedded database? The unique selling point of base 
seems to me that it's the only free DB frontend developing software around 
(besides "real" software development environments). So maybe we should 
concentrate on connectors, not on an embedded database engines which in 
most cases could be replaced by a calc table - and if not, then by mariaDB.


just my 2c
 (I know its's just ancillary and not the point you want to made, but scnr)

Re: [board-discuss] Counterproposal to the "actization" of LibreOffice Online

And also:

Maybe also that gave some people the impression that LibreOffice OnLine, 
being hosted at TDF and "contributed to the LibreOffice project", would 
have been made available to all but that may just be my reading.


Ciao
