There should be some mechanism to resolve change requests of multiple clients, but the first client should not
lock writing ability of other clients while being idle (I found that this was a problem in most MC 13 solutions).

This is why a proper client/server structure needs to be employed, possibly running something like SQL for storing information.
JimH:
SQL is not nearly fast enough. MC's database is tuned for media and for speed.

Ok, but there has got to be an alternative to allow for true client server updates/edits with locking of records and roll-backs etc. I did look at Nexus DB as an embedded DB for a project a while back. I'm sure there are others
JimH:
Asus has a new Eee PC coming that looks like it would work well for this.
