If usefull if you want a strong data integrity done by the Database
server, and if you want to share with others programs (I plan to
develop some one for the desktop)

Please see the version 0.2.

Your righ, I have modify again an attached you'll find the version 0.2

May Phil's want to help me in update the 0.2 version to his schema, I
have made some work around, but still exist some questions (maked in
