I would like to see this available also. It would be nice if it were a first class Zope citizen. A couple of questions. Will this be db agnostic or be fairly hardcoded? I would like to propose the use of InterBase as an excellent option for db. IB 6.0 is open source and will be available most anywhere Zope is. I don't know of any other db which meets those requirements. In addition to that it is an excellent database. It may not be 'Oracle' yet, but most don't need 'Oracle'. InterBase source code and release version is supposed to be available by the end of June. I have seen no release to believe that it won't be met. There are people on the IB lists which are Zope aware and would like to see IB be a first class citizen in the Zope community. I am not an expert on IB, but from what I've seen it could possibly support objects well. It has an understanding of the OO world. It would be nice if this could be done where it could scale from the 'whats sql' user to the power sql user. Giving both the ability to use it at their level. What I mean here is that it is transparent as possible while providing as much expressiveness as possible. Just a few thoughts.

All,
I've put some stuff about a proposed RelationalStorage in the ZODB wiki at http://www.zope.org/Members/jim/ZODB
Its goal is to allow you to use a SQL database as a Storage, which somewhat coincidentally would also get around the single-file 2GB limitation.
I would appreciate comments (in the wiki or here). The table structure I'm not sure on, it's only a skeleton right now...

Shouldn't be too difficult. (I know, famous last words.) I'd be interested in banging out a prototype.
I looked at FileStorage and the BasicStorage yesterday. I am trying to get a feel for it.
I'll have to see when I can get to it after responding to all these emails about LocalFS that piled up while I was on vacation.
That's because it's an amazing product.
All my best,
