A couple comments, and I understand that not everybody will agree with these statements, but here goes.
If you are going to tune a database by hand, working on an expansions which PEQ has released (aka luclin), its really better for everybody if you make changes to the PEQ database.... The two databases exist due to different goals in short: PEQ is quality and cavedude is quantity. PEQ has done much more work to improve the quality of the zones it has built (hence why it takes so long), and fine-tuning another DB would likely be replicating much of this work. Further, the PEQ quest pack covers several encounters from luclin (thanks to Ylosh), and will only work with PEQ's DB.
Furthur, if you DO work on a database, reguardless of which one it is, you really should post the SQL updates you run, not your entire database... otherwise your going to essentially start a new fork because theres no reasonable way that I know of to find the changes made. PEQ editor will log all of its changes for you, and I even wrote some in-game SQL logging a while back (which I just had to fix today), but other SQL changes would need to be logged by hand.
