I think there is really only one issue nobody has been able to sort out: do we want the objects to be actually stored on the filesystem or do we want to be able to mirror a ZODB? Or do we want both?
My conception of it is that objects won't be served from the filesystem, but just put in a editable serialized format for version control and tool purposes.
Nobody wants to edit XML, AFAICT.
Careful, that's a religious issue in some circles. :-) I know of many people who prefer that data be stored in XML just because humans can read and change it if the need arises. (This from a guy who has actually edited ZODB XML export files. :-) )
Eek. ;-)
