That sounds rather interesting. ATM, we are using our own dataformat
for similar purposes, but a SQL backend would be really useful in the
long run.
I was thinking about using sqlite, but I couldn't find idl wrappers,
so I gave it up (temporarily)
What exactly does 'large object storage' mean? Is it on the scale of
MB, or even GB?

Michi
