ANN: DataBasin 0.3

[Riccardo Mottola]

------------------

I am pleased to announce the release of DataBasin 0.3.

-- What's new --

* Object Inspector: given an Id, the object type is identified, 
described and all fields are queried and displayed in a convenient table
* Vastly better string encoding support
* Updated describe to 20.0 API

-- What is it? --

It is a data access tool for Salesforce.com, it allows querying, 
deleting and inserting records. It accesses the APIs through the usage 
of web services. Of interest might be its core, DBSoap, which implements 
the access to the APIs. It is designed to be reusable for other 
projects. As far as I know it is the only "Open source" implementation 
of its kind. It is released as LGPL.

DataBasin runs both on GNUstep and Mac>= 10.3

-- Where do I find it? --
Data Basin is hosted in the GAP project:

DataBasin uses the GNUstep Webservices, which Richard extended to 
support SOAP right for this application.
