I can't exactly see how you can call Dataphor free software. It's certainly not free to obtain - $2900/developer license makes it pretty stiff to evaluatem and I couldn't tell from the web page if the license is GPL or BSD - it certainly appears to be entirely proprietary.

Now, Dataphor may be the true relational DB that Date et al. have been praying for, but at $2900/license, I'm sure as heck not going to find out any time soon.

I can't. It was a mistake. I meant a free system, as relational as Dataphor... sorry.
