 * SQL Lite Data Provider
 
 <ul>
+	<li>ADO.NET Data Provider for 
+	the <a href"http://www.hwaci.com/sw/sqlite/">SQL Lite</a> which 
+	is an embeddable SQL database engine</li>
+
+	<li>From the SQL Lite web page: SQLite is a C library that 

+	implements an embeddable SQL database engine. Programs that link with 

+	the SQLite library can have SQL database access without 

+	running a separate RDBMS process. The distribution 

+	comes with a standalone command-line access program (sqlite) that 

+	can be used to administer an SQLite database and which serves 

+	as an example of how to use the SQLite library.  SQLite is not a client library 

+	used to connect to a big database server. SQLite is the server. The SQLite 

+	library reads and writes directly to and from the database files on disk.</li>

+
+	<li>SQL Lite can be downloaded 
+	from <a href"http://www.hwaci.com/sw/sqlite/download.html">here</a>.
+	binaries exist for Linux and Windows.  sqlite.dll on Windows 
+	and sqlite.so on Linux.  The source code is available too.</li>
+
 	<li>Exists in namespace and assembly Mono.Data.SqliteClient</li>

+	<li>Created by Vladimir Vukicevic so he could have a database of
+	thumbnail images for mPhoto.  mPhoto is GUI application 
+	for cataloging images.  mPhoto runs on Mono 
+	and uses <a href="http:www.go-mono.com/gtk-sharp.html">GTK#</a> for its GUI.</li>
+
+	<li>Bugs with Mono or the data provider should be reported 
+	in Mono's Bugzilla <a href="http://bugzilla.ximian.com/">here</a>.  If you
+	do not have Bugzilla user account, it is free 
+	and easy to 
+	create one <a href="http://bugzilla.ximian.com/createaccount.cgi">here</a>.</li>
