[opensource] Digital Information Virtual Archive (DIVA)

[James Jacobs]

Hi Lois, I believe it's written in php and java with a postgres backend. 
They mentioned that it should be able to function just as well with 
mysql or oracle but they haven't tested with oracle. FYI, the developers 
will be here next week giving a poster session at International 
Association for Social Science Information Services & Technology 
(IASSIST), hosted by SULAIR.

I'd highly recommend IASSIST, and not just because I'm on the local 
planning committee ;-)

cheers,

james
