PostgreSQL is an object-relational database management system that supports an extended
subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, and user-
defined types and functions. Find more information about PostgreSQL at
www.postgresql.org/ (http://www.postgresql.org/).
Rekall is a tool for manipulating databases. Supported databases include MySQL, PostgreSQL,
XBase with XBSQL, IBM DB2, and ODBC. Use Rekall to generate different sorts of reports
and forms, design database queries, or import and export data to various formats. Find more
information about Rekall at

StarOffice is a proprietary version of OpenOffice.org and is distributed by Sun Microsystems.
It is available on multiple platforms including Windows and Solaris. It includes certain
advanced features not available with the free version (OpenOffice.org). Find more information
about StarOffice at http://www.sun.com/software/star/staroffice/ (http://www.sun.com/
software/star/staroffice/).
Taskjuggler is a lean, but very powerful project management software. Take control of your
projects using the Gantt charting features or by generating all kinds of reports (in XML,
HTML, or CSV format). Those users who are not comfortable with controlling applications
from the command line can use a graphical front-end to Taskjuggler. Find more information
about Taskjuggler at http://www.taskjuggler.org
VYM is a software for visualizing your thoughts by creating and manipulating mind maps.
Most manipulations do not require more than one mouse click. Branches can be inserted,
deleted, and reordered very easily. VYM also offers a set of flags allowing you to mark certain
parts of the map (important, time critical, etc.). Links, notes, and images can be added to a mind
map as well. VYM mind maps use an XML format, allowing you to export your mind maps to
HTML easily. Find more information about VYM at
