Re: DevX article comparing open-source databases

May be Derby also qualifies for 'Single Database file' for read-only databases.  I think Dan and  Michael covered  all other corrections..

Rather than independently sending sets of (potentially conflicting) emails to the devx editors, perhaps we could build a list of corrections here; I'll kick it off by focusing on the obvious: * Replace Cloudscape 5.1 with Apache Derby 10.1 * Add a checkmark for ODBC Driver * Add a checkmark for user defined functions Add a checkmark for Derby for Intersection & Except (added in 10.1) Since DaffodilDB is not open source, replace it with One$DB. Put an X for encryption & Rowset support for One$DB. Maybe add a column for backup/restore and put an X for One$DB. Remove Pointbase, it's not open source is it? Dan.
