--- Quote ---4. Finally, the pet wish of many of us- A relational database. As you're adding more ways to display & use metadata, it becomes more and more important to have some degree of relativity, however basic.

i have no problem with a relational database if the datebase will be as flexiable as the database is now. if the relations are user controlable and the user can make its own tables. and i guess that it should also be easy to understand for new users..

And it needs to be designed so it can be multi-user.  For me the multi-user part is more important than the relational side as I'm yet to see where I actually need a relational DB but need multi-user now.  Of course once it's there I'm sure I'll use it :)

Can you explain to me why I want a relational database?
In easy to understand terms.

THE person to consult on this is darichman, he has tenaciously posted on this topic at least for the last 3 years.

The YARB thread i think is definitive in terms of his requirements defintion.

YARB -- Relational Database Annual Convention

And the term relational is a misnomer, there is nothing relational in the suggestion wrt to the user. All it suggests is parent-child fields.
