Thread: pgaccess BusinessExchange
Hello everybody, The new pgaccess wiki http://www.pgaccess.org/wiki/ allowed me to enhance one idea I am working on for some time. It is about using pgaccess for building small applications. The idea was originally conceived by Teo, who has started the pgaccess API. My personal vision is that pgaccess can be a nice base for building cross platform end user client applications, connecting to a central server (PostgreSQL). Currently I envision three areas - - warehousing systems for small companies - accounting systems for small companies - students' directories for schools or universities What we are missing are cases where this can be first implemented. To help finding such, I established on section on the pgaccess wiki - Business Exchange http://www.pgaccess.org/wiki/index.php?page=BusinessExchange The idea is to support individuals and companies all around the world to find similar topics and join their forces in the development of the tools. Please, feel free to share your ideas and use the wiki BusinessExchange for going into that area. All best to everybody, Iavor PS I myself am thinking hard where we can use pgaccess in a commercial or non-profit project (such as university, for example), but I am not sure of more than addresses management system we will try to build soon. I think Chris did something in this direction. -- Iavor Raytchev very small technologies (a company of CEE Solutions) in case of emergency - call: + 43 676 639 46 49 or write to: support@verysmall.org www.verysmall.org

However, I still don't have 0.98.8 working; the problem is that I'm using a package-based system (SuSE) and need to re-build TCL/Tk from source. Which, at last estimate, will take me 4-5 hours. : -( Maybe I should convert to GenToo. -Josh ______AGLIO DATABASE SOLUTIONS___________________________ Josh Berkus Complete informationtechnology josh@agliodbs.com and data management solutions (415) 565-7293 for law firms, small businesses fax 621-2533 and non-profit organizations.
