Eric,

For my project I would like to do a family tree. A 0NF database might contain a table as follows:

  • Mother's Name
  • Father's Name
  • Person's Name
  • Date of Birth
  • Place of Birth
  • Date of Death
  • Place of Death
  • Children's Names

Obviously this table would be normalized and maybe even split into multiple tables.

There might be other tables to, such as a marriage table or contact table.

As far as implementation details, I plan on using the following:

  • NetBeans IDE
  • Apache Tomcat
  • JSF possibly with PrimeFaces and PrimeFaces extension components
  • If need be, custom JSF components
  • Oracle Express with appropriate JDBC driver

In the formal proposal I will include version numbers.

There are two main reasons I have chosen those implementation details. First, they are free. Second, they are the components I am using at work so I already know how to use them to a degree.

Let me know if this sound like a good idea.
