have you looked into RBase? Its what the
company i work for uses, its also used by various government organizations and
has some strong connections to Witango so if you have some questions
many of the developers here would be able to give you some answers.

Database question
Here�s a more
on-topic question for here....
We�re a Win2k shop looking to move to
OS X Server 10.2 on XServe. Currently we�re running SQL Server 2k � but
frankly, part of my goal is to get rid of all MS software for our servers.
There are quite a few reasons for this, but I won�t elaborate.
Now,
my budget is already going to go down the tubes with the XServes...and
possibly WiTango (price still matters, and I�ll say that a large part of my
reluctance to embrace paying $$$ for WiTango 5 is the price and my viewpoint
that yes, its just an SP2 derivative). But you don�t want to skimp on the
database. So...I may just keep one of our servers for SQL Server � but what
low cost or freeware databases do you suggest? MySQL is what many people
seem to use, but from my reading � not experience mind you � its not a
�real� database. Yet large sites like SlashDot and others run off it just
fine.
I�m not looking for a database war here, I�m not looking for
support options � I�m just asking from what you currently run or have run in
the past � what do you recommend?
