Hi guys,
I completely understand your concerns and I would like to assure you that cubeSQL is updated and used in production.
I already updated the new website (not yet announced) and I already updated cubeSQL with a lot of fixes and improvements (and with the latest sqlite 3.27.2 version).

The latest cubeSQL is already used by some customers who do not need an installer because I am rewriting the installers for both MacOS and Linux.
cubeSQL admin has been updated: https://github.com/cubesql/cubeSQLAdmin
Xojo plugin has been updated too and we have added support for Raspberry Pi: https://github.com/cubesql/cubeSQLAdmin/tree/master/Plugins

I just need to cleanup the new installers and I plan to be ready to launch the new version next week.
Hope this helps.

@Marco Bambini this is all good news. I knew several of us use cubeSQL (and other SQLite based products that you offer) on a regular basis.

Thanks @scott boss we have updated SQLiteManager and SQLiteDoctor too.
We discontinued SQLiteConverter and SQLiteSync. The new SQLabs website should be live next week.

Takes over the maintenance.[/quote]

cubesql could be the best software in the world, (or the worst) the reality is that, at some point it doesn’t matter because it deppends on sqlite as back end. And as sqlite has said many times, it is not designed as a RDBMS and has its limitations.

To be more robust, and more standard if you had to leave the proyect, why dont you use a real RDBMS, like MySQL?

From MariaDB web site:

[quote]Distributing a proprietary application with the MariaDB / MySQL server
When you are distributing your application together with MariaDB or MySQL you are bound (or can be seen to be bound by some lawyers) by the GPL if some of the following statements apply:

You are using GPL code from MySQL linked directly to your application. (Like the MySQL GPL client library).
Your application requires the MariaDB server to work and without the MariaDB server it doesn’t start or it has very limited functionality.[/quote]

This sort of grey area is one of the reasons why I prefer PostgreSQL over mySQL or MariaDB.

Hey thanks for everyone chipping in.
Plenty to think about.
But I really like Cubesql and trust it. So I’ll stick with what I now that its getting some love.

Again thanks to everyones comments and thoughts.

CubeSQL is an amazing product with fantastic people behind the scenes making great software!

Though my day job requires MS SQL, I use CubeSQL for all my home projects.
