Power Church internals for possible Linux use ?

What database does Power Church use? Custom or ???

Can one query the database via shell scripts? What is the query language?

Is the database table structure openly defined, such that it could be replicated in non-proprietary database?

Thanks for any info.

Sincerely, Allen Wilkinson
