Thank you, Alex, for the excuse for a little PR.

1. SDB & libIPC are free and open source

2. My concern is that they do the job for my applications, as I make 
no money from their acceptance by others

3. SDB is offered to others so I have a greater base of developer & 
client site experience to draw from for a tool that is critical to my 
applications.

4. SDB is positioned as a simple, generalized, native Transcript data 
storage & retrieval engine...it's utility begins at the low and can 
be extended to I-don't-know-what...my largest test database to date 
is 43 MB (43,043 records).

5. It is available for any Revolution application that needs to store 
& retrieve data by key, mission critical or not.

SDB is part of the Serendipity Library bundle:
