The "of yesterday" in the acronyms I take to be an acknowledgement that Gaby uses semicolon-delimited ASCII text as its data-storage format rather than the more complex, less portable, and often binary formats common in the big database systems.
Gaby is a good example of a free software project which is beginning to gain momentum as users begin contributing enhancements and providing feedback..
Gaby appeals to me because rather than being a fixed-function program, it can be extended by its users so that it can be used in ways not imagined by the author.
