If we want to have a backend db, we must think about the revision library too.
Studying the code show me that all is organised as a filesystem, with plugins
to manage fileystem through, http, ftp, sftp. If this model work, this is
because there is a real filesystem behind.
I think for the moment (my point of view can change later), it is possible to
have an efficient db backend, but with one condition, we must plug the
backend higher in arch API, not at the level of the pfs. Why ?
_ Nothing is more efficient to store a filesystem than a real filesystem
_ Relationnal DB are designed to drop the notion of filesystem, so we don't
store files on a db, but we store logical entity, like, category, package,
version, hacker, etc ...
I continue my study of code arch, if I manage to design an appropriate(clean)
interface, I will start the writing of SQLite backend.
