[net.general] data dictionary systems information wanted

pkc (03/25/83)

    My group is looking into the possibility of acquiring a data dictionary
    system for our data base project. If you have, or know of, any UNIX-based
    data dictionary packages, please response via mail including the following
    information :

         1. originator(s)/contact information
         2. is it a public domain or proprietary software ?
         3. is it DBMS-dependent or free-standing with any interface available
            to any specific DBMS ?
         4. pointer(s) to any documentation that might help the initial 
            evaluation of the system
         5. experience with the system, pros and cons

    Any information other than those would also be appreciated.
    Thanks,
                                                     Peter Chen
