i can't really say i'm truly happy with [EclipseStore], probably because i, apparently, didn't grasp some of the core concepts behind it. while it worked flawlessly, i always had the nagging feeling of using it the wrong way.

the biggest problem is the binary format and its opaqueness. with a traditional database system there are external to inspect and manipulate the contents. and then there's the unreasonable effectiveness of plain text.

the [pepperino] wiki engine was, initially, a demo for testing [EclipseStore], but now i ported it to a plain text file based backend.
