Yes, the replies to my mail are very helpful - I am overwhelmed. It's acceptable to me that ZODB not be ODMG-compliant, it's nice to confirm that it's not, so that I can devise workarounds fully confident I'm not duplicating work. I _do_ suggest that this information appears in the top-level FAQ, and the ZODB documentation. If/when I have more helpful info along this line, I will share.

ODMG Compliance
On June 14, 1994, the ODMG Board ( http://www.odmg.org/ ) approved a list
of
object databases as ODMG Compliant and ODMG Certified. ZODB doesn't appear on that list. Ditto for CORBA integration. Anyone knows how standards compliant we are and will be?
We aren't ODMG compliant at this point. It would be a bit of work to be compliant. The hardest part would be OQL support. I'd love to see ZODB be ODMG compliant, but we (DC) don't have a significant need for it at this time. If anyone has a strong need, I'd be happy to help out with advice. Of course, our priorities can change. ;) Jim P.S. I'll offer to buy anyone who (seriously) wants to work on this a copy of the ODMG spec. :) -- Jim Fulton mailto:jim@digicool.com Technical Director (888) 344-4332 Python Powered!
