Hi,

There are some networking solutions for sqlite
http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/wiki?p=SqliteNetwork
You could always design a front end for it in rails :-)

you can trim your rails app of some of the parts of rails it doesn't
need.  Thats all set in the environment.rb file.

  # Skip frameworks you're not going to use. To use Rails without a
database
  # you must remove the Active Record framework.
  # config.frameworks -=
[ :active_record, :active_resource, :action_mailer ]
