SRPM URL: http://www.knox.net.nz/~nodoid/db4o-5.5-1.src.rpm
Description: 

db4o is an open source object database for .NET/mono and Java (though I've only packaged the mono version!)

Objects are stored natively, eliminating the added complexity and performance drain of conversion to other formats such as SQL. The native support of object-oriented database functionalities, such as db4o's acclaimed Native Queries and object-oriented replication, boost the performance and flexibility gains of object-oriented programming languages such as Java and .NET.

Its is *incredibly* powerful!

This software is like Qt3 in that it has a commercial and GPL version, which may cause problems for RHEL.

The version here is not the stable version, but the developer version (the stable version does not compile with mono-1.1.16-1. This has been reported upstream and also to the mono developers)

It also has the mono hack (though it is commented on). There is no devel package as there is no .pc file

The src rpm also includes the API and tutorials.
