Log message:
Initial import of cstore-0.2, a "column store" relational database,
into the Packages Collection. This package is meant to support data
warehousing in a much more efficient manner than traditional RDBMSs.

	C-Store is a read-optimized relational DBMS that contrasts sharply
	with most current systems, which are write-optimized.  Among the many
	differences in its design are:

	+ storage of data by column rather than by row,

	+ careful coding and packing of objects into storage including main
	memory during query processing,

	+ storing an overlapping collection of column-oriented projections,
	rather than the current fare of tables and indexes,

	+ a non-traditional implementation of transactions which includes high
	availability and snapshot isolation for read-only transactions,

	+ and the extensive use of bitmap indexes to complement B-tree
	structures.

Please note that the storage required for this package could be viewed
as being quite extreme - the standard build and data occupies in excess
of 20 GB, and that is all installed into ${PREFIX} at installation
time.
