Visionary

Berkley types,
Dr. Stonebraker developed some code in 1991 called Visionary.
That
allowed a user to visually datamine a database engine's data. Does the
original
source to this project still exist? And could Postgres benefit from it
as a
datamining tool for Postgres clients?

D.

I believe it is called tioga. Not sure, but I saw a web page about it
once. Check the postgresql e-mail archives on our web site. Maybe
hackers or general list.

I think you may be referring to the DataSplash project (see:
http://datasplash.cs.berkeley.edu).

The next release is due out next month, and should work with PostgreSQL 6.x
out of the box.

The contact person is Mybrid Spalding (mybrid@cs.berkeley.edu).
