I am looking at possiblity of using neo4j graph db as back end database for PhpGedView. Has any one tried that.
Is that good idea. Any suggestion or comments.

Elango ... My version of PGV runs on Firebird after I replaced the built in DB ibstraction with ADOdb. This allows many more database to potentially be used with PGV, but the main problem is differences in the SQL and reserved names that prevent a 'one script fits all' aproach. Since neo4j does not have the same interface style as conventional 'record based' databases, generating the lists required to populate drop down areas and the main lists may become a problem? The family tree does lend itsef to a graph based data model, but the database is used mainly to provide filtered lists fast rather than the raw data that makes up a tree display. The database is essentially a persistent set of lists rather than a model of the undrlyig data.
