I definitely looked it, and had chat with Rodrigo as well. One thing
that I came to know is that, if I'm not looking for anything other than
sqlite as a option, then use sqlite itself. Also libgda has a copy of
sqlite inside it than a direct linkage. Good in some senses but
Evolution has  been traditional on that (libdb copy, libical copy) and I
definitely dont want one more (sqlite through libgda).

But, If I have no option to depend on sqlite directly, then I would need
to force myself to go that way.
