Developers who are working on integrating CiviCRM with other modules and/or developing contributions for CiviCRM need to have a good understanding of the database structure.
- What data is stored in what tables?
- What type and size of data is valid for a given field?
- How are the various tables connected to each other?

Hey, the ERDs for 1.7 were great last year, but now it's 2008. I am hoping to find something for 2.0, because I am advised by reliable sources :) that there have been major changes.
Thanks,
Ken
Just adding a direct link to: CiviCRM ERD 2.0
I was wondering why the ERD diagrams are not up to date.
The reason why is that it is much more convenient to generate your own. Download MySQL Workbench and install it. Using MySQL Workbench you can reverse engineer your own database and create a diagram with selected tables of interest. You get an elegant, uncluttered view into CiviCRM.
You are not stuck with a giant incomprehsible nightmare.
