				GNU Data Access (GDA) is an attempt to provide uniform access to
				different kinds of data sources (databases, information servers,
				mail spools, etc).

				It is a complete architecture that provides all you need to access
				your data.
				It is defined by a set of plugin APIs as generic as possible
				(but very powerful at the same time) so that any kind of data source
				can be accessed through them.

				libgda is an interface to the GDA architecture, providing a nice
				wrapper around the GDA interfaces, for both the client and the server
				parts. It also provides a bunch of tools to help you both in the
				development and management of your data sources, all done through
				the GDA model's interfaces.

				libgda was part of the GNOME-DB project, but has been separated from it
				to allow non-GNOME applications to be developed based on it.
