PyLiteAdmin -- Database Competence is Discoverable

SQLite is included in python 2.5 and therefore on every XO.

This auspicious situation presents an opportunity to provide early hands-on experience with SQL and a local database application. Once database concepts are understood, the student can graduate to the more complex client/server environment which has become one of the dominant paradigms for online web applications (using Linxux, Apache, Mysql, Php --LAMP). The school server will be a LAMP server.

This project proposes to create a database administration tool for SQLite which mimics the look and the feel of Phpmyadmin in relation to MySQL.
