More localized library software

LibDB is Morbus Iff's entry into the personal library software realm. Morbus' work with Amphetadesk (the 'all in one page like Radio, but oh so much more and yet quieter' aggregator) has been pretty nice, so this project carries some interest. Currently focused on video/movie items, but presumably extensible.

Morbus is throwing a number of acronym's around (like FRBR) that the unfamiliar (like me) with formal library science may be troubled by, but he's handed out a keen reading list to his wiki to help catch us up.

One to watch going forward, especially as the distributed library project written about here and elsewhere earlier seems to have gone a bit quiet.
