In response to reporting tools  (Geoffrey <lists@serioustechnology.com>)
List pgsql-general
I looked at BIRT - it is part of Eclipse.  It is pretty new and I found the documentation to be pretty limited.  Also, it has few output options.  These factors caused me to decide against it.  Settled on JasperReports and like it a lot.  It integrated easily with my Java (Eclipse RCP) GUI.  Creating reports isn't any harder than Crystal Reports.  In my GUI, I use an xml file for a report list, so I can add, edit, and delete reports easily without altering program code.
