+Typhoon is a freely available relational database management system for
+the UNIX and OS/2 environments.
+
+The system works fine and is currently used in a number of professional
+applications in Denmark, some of them mission critical.
+
+The system was originally inspired by Raima's db_VISTA (today Raima Data
+Manager) but is relational rather than network based. Typhoon lacks some of
+db_VISTA's features, but also contains a number of nice features not found in
+db_VISTA.
