In your opinion (or in the opinion of anyone else intimately familiar with 
SQLite), is SQLite suited to this ?  It could be done as a standard package, 
provided and supported by the same team that supports standard SQLite and 
provided in the same amalgamated form.  The procedure would presumably be 
something like:

1) Pick a pair of ports for the protocol and start the process of getting the 
IETF to recognise them.
2) Devise a protocol to encode all the functions in 
<http://www.sqlite.org/c3ref/funclist.html> so they can be used over IP.
3) Do the programming for the server and client.

Does the team think it's worth doing this ?  Or will the vast majority of 
people who need networked SQL also need a bunch of other features like user 
privilages which mean you might as well just use one of the existing 'big' SQLs 
?

Simon.
