in that case, and due to all that has been said about the GNOME office
apps, I propose the inclusion of gnome-db, which has been quite stable
for several months. In fact, we (GNOME-DB team) were waiting for Bonobo
to become part of stable GNOME to release our first stable release. So,
as Bonobo is being included for 1.4, and as gnome-db is somewhat
componentized (lots of work to be done here though), I think it's got
its place in this GNOME Office release.

here's the contact information in case it's being included:
