Currently the only available DB support in the base system is Berkeley
DB (1.x) there are several items that would benefit from migrating
something like minisql into the base system. The most immediate
application that comes to mind is enabling some interesting features
for the ports system. Therefor I purpose migrating some minimal
RDBM's features into the base system.
Been there, tried that (SQLite), but unsuccessfully - people here REALLY
like text files :)
system write binary files. Now that being said if worst comes to
worst it is not that hard (in some ways at least) to layer a
non-command language RDBMS on top of Berkeley db (i.e. it has a
relational API but no user level commands). Basically all that one
needs to do is group keyed values into structured records vs. free
form data.
