DBKit without Oracle/Sybase?

Now NS3.0 is out, I'm allowed to ask this question:

We would like to experiment with DBKit. Unfortunately, we don't have Oracle 
or Sybase servers (we do have Ingres, but not on the NeXT). 
It is my understanding that there is no DBKit adaptor to a flat-file  
database available. Is there any possibility in examining the features
of DBKit without purchasing Oracle or Sybase?

Thanks in advance,

Dimitri

There is supposed to be a Netinfo adaptor, but I haven't seen it.

Hopefully we'll get the IndexingKit adaptor at the same time (the
sooner the better).
