Hi,

Concerning the discussion that occured about PIM application, I would
like to let you know that we are working at SMARTDATA on an embedded
database that has exactly this aim. Some interesting characteristics
are :

        - storage on flash
        - transaction support
        - client/server
        - facility for the definition of "links" between items of
          different types (to enable the incorporation of notes in
          appointments,...)
        - versioning: if a record is corrupted, the database can
          fallback on a previous version.

We had the following guidelines in mind while developping this
application :

        - robustness
        - clean separation between data and applications
        - small footprint

A first release should be made available in a month or two in the form
of a binary executable (the server) and a client library provided as
sources, for dragonball/uClinux and intel/linux platforms. I'll let
you know when it's ready...

Fr�d�ric
