Thank you Drew for this interesting link.
Base is somehow almost there regarding corporate IT concerns, because it
can access remote databases with its drivers. The issue raised is the
creation of a local (desktop) database file. Ideally (corportation-wise)
is to let Base only acess remote DB under IT control. The initial Base
versions (1.x) had no local engine, which is the situation desired.

Hey - just trying to help us get a head of the curve here.
Respectfully,

ps - Yes, the email is "toungue in cheek"...then again think about that
