1.2.6 released

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:

http://leap.sourceforge.net

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.

regarding LEAP, available at:

Regards,
