Thanks, Paul - those are good questions. I assume by "c interface" you mean ODBC? I believe that would be best, but requires more work... I suspect this is the direction Xavier took with his database package.
Given a choice between perl, Matlab and "create your own," the community would probably prefer a solution that "looks like Matlab." That is, without a GUI and no Matlab-specific I/O, I assume.
