Hello Christoph,

I shall try to propose a rewording of the description for Wims.
AFAIK, Mysql server is not considered as buggy about its description.
So I will just replace a few words in Mysql's description to adapt it to
Wims.

-----------------8<--------------------
 Wims is a fast, stable and true multi-user, multi-threaded educational
 application server. It supports the language OEF to describe exercises. 
 The main goals of Wims are speed, robustness and ease of use.
 .
 This package contains all the infrastructure needed to setup Wims 
 modules support.
-----------------8<--------------------

Have you a better idea about what the package does?

Please make a comparison with Mysql's description, and say me where the
problem was with the previous description.

IMHO, the main problem is that your background contains a good training
about SQL databases, and no previous knowledge about Wims. If that topic
does interest you, please take a look at http://www.google.com/search?q=wims 
and eventually http://www.wimsedu.info, and make a few propositions which
would make the description for Wims more evident for people who do not
use it.

Best regards,                   Georges.
