Dear list,
currently, I am working with GRASS 6.1 CVS. In my office, more people will
use GRASS and QGIS as the standard GIS. Therefore the question, which
database system to store attribute data should be used is of increasing
importance. As most of my colleagues are used to work with ArcView and it's
simple way to work with attribute data.
I played around with sqlite and grass and really like the sqlitebrowser for
viewing the tabular data and to make some modifications (add / delete
field), but I do not have any experiences on postgres and GRASS. As far as I
know, there exists no comparable tool for pg as sqlitebrowser for sqlite.  
Now, I ask myself: What are the pro's and con's for postgres,sqlite or
another database management programme. What system do other GRASS users use
(and why?)?

Greetings,

Wolfgang
