We have been OEM's for RUBIX for over two years now and use it on all
of our products.  The system is very easy to learn (it takes less than
a week for someone with 'c' AND UNIX to pick it up). We started using
it because it was the only DBMS we could get at that time which ran on
the fortune systems and had a c interface.  One warning RUBIX is very
UNIX friendly the training needed for a novice to use RUBIX is to teach
him how to use UNIX.  Also PREFIX which was mentitioned in the
original article is undergoing great changes so check with ITI for full
details. 

If anyone would like to talk to a user of RUBIX send me mail.
