* [TUHS] JPLDIS - still extant? @ 2005-03-27 9:10 Wesley Parish 2005-03-27 22:01 ` Jose R. Valverde 0 siblings, 1 reply; 2+ messages in thread From: Wesley Parish @ 2005-03-27 9:10 UTC (permalink / raw) I was looking around for stuff to play with on FreeDOS and I thought, do they have any DBMS yet? So I googled for (dbase public domain) and got something about the aforesaid JPLDIS, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory's Display and Information System. Anyone got any ideas of its continued existence? (It's written in Fortran, I judge, and I think there are a few PD Fortrans out there that could be used to reanimate it. ;) Thanks Wesley Parish -- Clinersterton beademung, with all of love - RIP James Blish ----- Mau e ki, he aha te mea nui?

As for databases... you may be interested in looking over other links. Your initial query was too narrow (public domain << open source). See e.g. http://www.iam.unibe.ch/~scg/Archive/Software/FreeDB/FreeDB.list.html http://www.swen.uwaterloo.ca/~mrbannon/cs798/ or search for 'open source dbms' or 'open source database'. j -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
