I wouldn't know about what exactly he has in mind, but I suspect that a "port" from ms-bound to "free" would be fairly easy.
Since accessing an access database is still done via simple SQL querys AFAIK, it shouldn't mean much work to just switch to another database type.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, I don't have much experience :X

I've never intended it to be MS only. In fact, I'm doing my stuff natively in Open Office and trying to make it so that the data will be readable straight into a SQL database. So most of this will be usable to you in any case.

I understand that an MS file can be read non-MS programs but Im not sure if that holds true on non-MS machines.
