There is no specific objection to SQL. There is a general objection to adding more utilities to the base system unless a _very_ good case can be made for including them. So far, no-one has made a compelling reason to include SQLite (or other SQL engine) into the base system. SQLite does appear to be a potential candidate for the base system - the license is acceptable and it is relatively small. On the downside, SQLite is currently undergoing rapid development - at a rate much faster than FreeBSD can comfortably accomodate. >Anyway, in this case, would writing an RPC server to own the data kill the= =20 >performance?
