Terry,

Thanks for the suggestion.  It took me a few days to overcome some  
installation problems, but I finally got PHPMyAdmin working with the  
build 21 diversity databases on Gramene:

	http://dev.gramene.org/php/phpmyadmin/index.php

Write me personally for the username/password to get in.  It's a  
pretty ugly interface but does indeed allow edits to the data on  
acorn.  I can't immediately find a way to control access to things  
like dropping tables, nor do I see a way to create pretty forms for  
the edit pages, but this is something, at least.

FYI, it would be trivial to add other databases, e.g., if Panzea  
wants to use this.  Also, in case you care, I'm running this PHP  
installation with an Apache 2 binary in "/usr/local/apache2" on acorn  
and proxying all "/php" calls from the normal Apache 1 listening for  
"dev.gramene.org" to this other server.  I thought it would be best  
to keep them separate.
