I agree 100%!

Most of the hort.net site is actually run out of a mySQL database (the
only exception is the actual list archives themselves, but that will 
change sometime before summer).  

I'd be happy to work with folks to develop a database schema that would
fulfill everyone's needs.

P.S.  It's great having my link collection in a database.  I wrote a 
      script that goes out and checks the links nightly and can remove
      dead links, so I don't have to worry about it anymore.  :)
