There is currently a XUL frontend for PostgreSQL being worked on. The
last I checked there were still problems with the MySQL conn. SqlLite is
being worked on hard by two guys, don't know if they started a front end
yet. XUL *rocks* as a development platform and I see I need to stop
trying to convince people of that and instead start showing how. As I
get time between now and the end of the year I'll be putting together a
*lot* of XUL devel info, if no one else has done it before the end of
the year. Early next year I'll be offering to do a detailed development
meeting on the Mozilla platform (fingers cross that some pretty kewl
stuff will be done by then).
