I found some other stuff for Palm OS data base, but didn't find any good yet.
All the above links give good explanation of the subject. I will try to update later.
-Jean-Benoit
I found a little bit more in depth about NewtonOS: http://lowendmac.com/orchard/06/john-sculley-newton-origin.html
Also, another name for Palm OS is Garnet OS. I haven't had time yet to look too much into this, but the wiki has many links to references and to the main site: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palm_OS
Edit:
Since there are 5 database systems listed, and 5 people in the group, we can each pick one to work on. If anyone needs help with the one they pick, holla! Also, if you find another database system you want to work on, just add it to the list and put your name beside it.
WinFS - Jean-Benoit
ReiserFS -
Newton OS - Daniel
PalmOS/Garnet OS - Tuan Pham
BeOS -
Other (list)...
-Daniel
Just to check how everybody are going? There is still two people who haven't picked an FileSystem, is there a problem or you simply didn't write your name next to it?
Also, for others i found an other database System made by Oracle. It is called : Internet File System. http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/A90434_01/toc.htm Here a good link to get started.
I'll probably posted in the page what I have written so far later today.
Also, to keep consistence, I don't know how you are writing yours, but mine will look something like that : Short history of Winfs, predecessor , etc. (by short i mean roughly 200-300 words) Short explanation on how WinFs works. It's fate and Why
If you have any other idea, please share it.

Hey I am curious to how we are going to put all this together, are we each writing an essay for our chosen OS and then edit all the essays into one big one?
-Tuan Pham
I was thinking that we could simply have an introduction to express the general advantages and disadvantages of Database as filesystem, then create sections for our different OS. Then at the end a conclusion.
But for that to work, we need most of our essay to be done in the next 2 days or so. Tuesday during the day we would need all the essay to be done so we can edit each other and write introduction + conclusion.
What do you think ? Any idea?
Edit : I just posted what I have so far. If you have any idea to add anything , just let me know. Also, English isn't my first language, so feel free to fix any of my errors.
