The idea from what i can gather with this project is to create a scalable (for lack of a better word) unkillable fast database server that can be easily plugged into other programs.

There are docs on its C API at : http://www.backplane.com/docs.shtml?doc=1 The only problems i have see so far is : Only one datatype is implemented, 'varchar'. In otherwords, everything is a string. We do not support UNIQUE ( more info at : http://www.backplane.com/docs.shtml?doc=2 ) Comments ? P
