MDB2
I posted on MyDataBook recently so I felt I should inform anyone considering an install that MDB2 has been released. You can check out the demo here (change log is also available).

It does take someone familiar with manual database installation as there is no auto-install available at this point. Also, if you are familiar with PHP it is very easy to customize to your liking.
