Everyware didn't change its name; it was bought out by Pervasive.
Pervasive sells its own line of SQL servers (although not for Mac),
and bought Everyware for Tango. Of course, they don't have much
interest in maintaining a competitive product :-(

Butler is currently in the "transitional" phase during which support
is phased out.

(I'm currently looking for alternatives as we speak, actually. Anyone
know where to get Mac ODBC drivers for PostgreSQL?)
