The open-source InterBase(tm) 6.0 spin-off (Classic server version)
InterBase is a world-class DBMS with a history too rich to detail
here. Once selling for several thousands of dollars per license,
some very big players use it worldwide. Inprise has open-sourced
InterBase 6.0, and a lively bunch of folks has charged themselves
with seeing that it lives on through the Firebird project.
Note that as of Firebird 0.9_4, the locksmith back door has
been closed.
