Hi Benni,

since we have not heard anything of Thomas for a while I think we must =
continue on this subject without him.
We should start new from scratch with the basic project that I have =
already set up.

So if you are still willing and able to work with us can you bring in =
some of the ideas we had into this new project?
We should first start with developing the templates for the database and =
table classes and generate them with the options I have previously =
suggested (if possible).

Looking forward to hearing form you.
Regards

Rainer
