I don't think concurrency is going to be a major requirement for what I have in mind. For one project, only a few people will be writing to the DB, and only by a stroke of luck would it be at the same time, and it would be very unlikely that they would be modifying the same record at the same time due to physical constraints. For the other... there may be anywhere from 1-10 (maybe more, but doubtful) entering data (creating new records for competitors, or entering existing competitors in a tournament). I have a hard time picturing that few people stressing a modern computer system enough to where SQLite couldn't keep up (thinking web-based interface using Flask or something similar). In the latter case, one of the over-arching priorities is that it be easily distributable, as in that people with relatively little knowledge of a database be able to set it up and run it. -- Shiny!
