Err... Please, can you ask for a mysql database ? I'll need one.
I don't know where to ask for it, and moreover, I don't have the right
to ask it ;)

I know. The project I was talking about didn't auto-generate changelogs
 and have clean changelog, by release. I know, this file should be
 called NEWS ;)

Keep it Simple, Stupid ? I don't really know what to keep simple ? The

At my side, I don't mind about documentation licensing. I don't think
 it's necessary for applications doc.
Moreover, FDL is not considered free by Debian, so there may be one more
problem.

I think GPL or non-licensed is sufficient.
