Have you considered taking the "socket based server" that you wrote, I am assuming, on top of SQLite, and donating it to public domain/open source, putting it on the sqlite wiki, so others may benefit? Who knows, with a seed like that, someone may well build a SQLiteEnterprise (as much an oxymoron as that might be). -- Puneet Kishor http://www.punkish.org/ Nelson Institute for Environmental Studies http://www.nelson.wisc.edu/ Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) http://www.osgeo.org/ Sent from: Madison WI United States. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
