Well, it worked relativelly well that time except for some glitches
which I couldn't reproduce. Anyway, the data was not that important
and I ended thrwoing the db away.

In the projects I'm working on the only persistent things I have are
the local Utilities and Interface services, and some Persistent
Schema. I also have some local services of my own, but they are
'recyclable' afaict.
