Please help stamp out Data.fs! :-)
I don't think Data.fs will go away. I do expect it to be relagated to initial evaluation and development projects. Use of Berkely DB in transactional mode requires a significant andminstration commitment. Log files need to be purged. Backup and recovery processes need to be in place. A similar cost is associated with using Oracle and many other databases, I expect. People aren't going to want to deal with these issues when initially trying and learning Zope (or ZODB).
Sometime it will, I hope. Or at least, be relegated to non-Zope ZODBs where the data volume is very small. But FileStorage will not be replaced by any of the current alternatives, I agree.
