Ok...so is it possible to start work on a simple version of this database
package - with just the base tools to allow update and retrieval (but the
ability to extend it later when we have more time and motivation)?

Who is interested in this?  Who has started allready (Wichert?) ?

I'm not an overly confident coder (but I can code) - so I won't take this on
myself, but I'm more than willing to help out.  Lets at least get something 
happening people :)

Regards,

Chris
