Glom este o interfata asemanatoare cu Microsoft Access pentru PostgreSQL. Este gandit sa permita realizarea unei structuri de
baza de date relationala intr-un mod cat mai facil, grafic. Este realizata in GTKMM (bindinguri GTK pentru C++).
Mai multe detalii aici www.glom.org.

Tocmai a fost lansata versiunea 1.1.6, care este o versiune din ramura stabila 1.1.6.  Aceasta aduce diferite bug fixuri si unele
feature-uri noi, precum ar fi optiunea "Add Related Table", care permite crearea directa a unui tabel legat de tabelul curent, deci de creare facila de relatii.

Glom este in CVS-ul Gnome, si daca ritmul de dezvoltare se mentine sunt sanse sa faca parte din pseudosuita "Gnome Office", careia momentan ii lipseste o componenta BD respectabila, fata de Microsoft Office, care are access, OpenOffice, care are base, sau KOffice, care are Kexi.

Sursa: Gnome Announce - mailinglist. Iata anuntul complet:

With Glom you can design table definitions and the relationships between
them, plus arrange the fields on the screen. You can edit and search the
data in those tables, and specify field values in terms of other fields.
It's as easy as it should be.
 
Glom 1.1/1.2 adds some new features and minor UI changes and includes
bugfixes from the Glom 1.0.x branch.

*** Glom 1.1.6: (changes since 1.0.0):
 
1.1.6:
 
* Really remember the last-viewed record on the details view when navigating
  between tables.
* List view: Remember column widths when you resize them manually.
  Bug #358089 from Peter Williams.
* Related records:
  - When clicking the open button, show a warning dialog when the related
  record indicates a non-existant doubly-related record, making navigation
  impossible.
  - Allow navigation to doubly-related records (such as products from
  invoice lines on an invoice record), even when only the ID key is shown.
 
* Developer mode:
  - Added Add Related Table item to the Tables menu. This is a time-saving
    feature to quickly create a related table and a relationship to it,
    and is a first step to implementing further refactoring functionality.
    Bug #355975.
  - Related records: Allow the developer to specify to what table the user
    will be taken, or use the automatic choice.
  - List views and related records portals:
    When no fields are specified, show a hint about editing the layout.
    Bug #354073 from Peter Williams.
  - Python API (Calculated fields and button scripts):
    Added record.connection and record.table_name attributes, so you can
    go wild with SQL with the whole pygda API, if you must.
    The connection is even open already, you lucky people.
    See http://www.glom.org/wiki/index.php?title=Calculated_Fields_API#Using_the_full_pygda_API
    (Murray Cumming)
  - Button scripts: Update the view after the script has run, in case it
    changed any data.
  - Field Formatting: You can now specify a number of text lines to show for
    multi-line text. Bug #355907 from Peter Williams.
  - Layout editor dialogs: Added explanatory tooltips to the Add buttons.
  - Field calculation editor: Prevent translators from translating the
    fragment of python code.
