 GNUstep Database Library 2 (GDL2) is a set of libraries to map Objective-C objects to rows of relational database management systems (RDBMS). It aims to be compatible with Enterprise Objects Framework ([[EOF]]) as released with WebObjects 4.5 from Apple Inc and is used in conjuction with [[GNUstepWeb]].

		+	Currently GDL2 is meant for developers who can help test and contribute to the current code or are willing to test the interface. It is not ready for general purpose production code.
