I'm guessing when you say you'd like to distribute the database, you'd also like to distribute some sort of a user interface to it? Else SQLite is popular for bundling SQL dbs, and SQLite is available on basically every platform, or Couchdb seems popular for this NoSQL thingy. In any case, if the users will have internet access or similar, the easiest way to do it (and probably the only way to get guaranteed cross-platform) is to use a web interface and host it somewhere they can all get at. -- Avi -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
