Can't say that I have, but we might be able to give you a load off from 
that anyways though.

We'll be developing a GUI with everything and sugar on top, and we'll 
most likely base it on one (or both) of the database modules.

We in this case means OP5, the company I work for. The resulting code 
will be GPL'd and released to the public.

Incidentally, we're also looking for developers (C, Perl, PHP and SQL 
mainly, with some shell and possibly Python thrown in for good measure). 
Interested?
