Announcing UnQLite: An Embeddable NoSQL(Key/Value + Document store) Database

In case you are wondering how this is this different from Tokyo/Kyoto Cabinet [1], the cached version of the unQLite site [2] states: "unQlite is a document storage engine like MongoDB, Cassandra, Riak and so forth as well a key-value storage engine like Berkeley DB, Tokyo Cabinet."<p>Also, this does not appear to be the unQLite that Richard Hipp, creator of SQLite, has said he plans to create [3]. This unQLite is created by one Mrad Chems Eddine [4].<p><pre><code> 1: http://fallabs.com/ 2: http://goo.gl/M9nzq 3: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQLite#History, http://www.infoq.com/news/2011/08/UnQL 4: http://unqlite.org/licensing.html</code></pre>

Couldn't you just use sqlite with blobs? Or, you know, use files?

So we've reinvented BerkeleyDB?<p>Why?
