Intriguing stuff. Once you've set this up in MS SQL 2k, what 
requirements are there for a client to manage them? I mean, besides 
what the database takes care of for you automatically.

And by the way, if you're working with federated databases, how big are 
these tables you're dealing with? I'm just wondering how much bigger 
the tables at my work can get before I need to look into something like 
this.

Well, I'll put "port to MS SQL" on my to-do list and let you know when 
a new beta release has MS SQL support ... then I just need a steady 
supply of specific bug reports to chase down, after that.
