It is quite handy for DB administration.
A simple utility to just do the backup and restore is no more
than a day or two effort. A nice user friendly GUI interface to look
at and modify DB content is of course more involved and dependent on
the complexity of the DB.
I have done all this several times. If you are serious about

could work out an arrangement that would be beneficial to both of us.
