+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.
+
+The design is loosely based on FileMaker Pro, with the added
+advantage of separation between interface and data. Its simple
+framework should be enough to implement most database
+applications. Without Glom these systems normally consist of lots
+of repetitive, unmaintainable code.
+
+Glom-specific data such as the relationship definitions is saved
+in the Glom document. Glom re-connects to the database server
+when it loads a previous Glom document. The document is in XML
+format.
+
+Glom uses the PostgreSQL database backend but it can not edit
+databases that it did not create, because it uses only a simple
+subset of Postgres functionality.
