Looking at it for a church   Hello:   I was wondering if anyone has setup a point-of-sale system with postgresql.  Also, I will have to create a database for a church that requires lots of tables and subcategories.  They have 4 different locations and wish to be interconnected amongst each other, yet remain distinct and autonomous. They have lots different categories (women’s group, kid’s group, seminars, etc.) and funds within funds.  Any suggestions/examples of how someone could go about the data-modeling for this.  Also, was thinking of using .php and ruby to connect them via the net.  I will also, require setting up a general ledger and a full accounting system for them.  Inventory for books, cds.  I am looking at multiple sources for them including MySQL, Microsoft.Net (really, really don’t want to go there) and any other suggestions individuals may have.   Thanks and help is much appreciated.   Pamela
