Hi, all,

I am thinking about doing some Scheme programming exercises/projects.
What I have in mind is to implement a database engine + an SQL interface
in Scheme.

1. To demonstrate the power of Scheme
2. There are not many 'free' SQL packages around. (Some, yes, but not many)

Anyone has any comment on this idea?
I am not an expert Scheme programmer, just a novice one,
and is appealed to the smallness and simplicity of Scheme.
Any hint from you, and the Rabbis of Scheme is welcomed.

Best regards,

Albert
