[ANNOUNCE] LEAP RDBMS v1.2.6

This post is to announce the release of v1.2.6 of the LEAP RDBMS.

LEAP is a free relational database management system (RDBMS) that is sed by an increasing number of universities around the world as a part of their database courses. LEAP fully supports the relational algebra, and the behavioral components of the relational model. It is intended as a teaching tool and foundation for further work. It is free and distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL).

This release of LEAP fixes a number of bugs, and has a completely revised set of examples, to tie in with the recently published book "Theory and Practice of Relational Databases", which features a chapter on LEAP - For more details on this book visit: http://www.theorypractice.org

Full information, download details, a demonstration, and online user guides, are all available from the LEAP web pages:

LEAP is under constant development, and supports a wide range of Operating systems including Linux, Solaris, HP-UX, Windows 95/NT, AIX and others. LEAP is distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License. The standard distribution contains full 'C' source code, full documentation, and examples from the popular database book "Theory and Practice of Relational Databases", now substantially revised for a second Edition by Stefan Stanczyk, Bob Champion and Richard Leyton.
