As discussed above I had a good look at it yesterday and did the porting over to sqlite. What is still missing is a slight polish and doing the actual release including update to the website. I think I will have that done likely tomorrow evening. Is there anyone who I should contact once the release is out, or should I just ping in this ticket? With best regards, -- Philipp. (Rah of PH2)
