The plan was established between "elro", Kapil and me. The existing
integration packages will partially go away or switch over to using
zope.sqlalchemy for the low-level stuff (mainly transaction integration) and
provide more high-level services (like database configuration and setup,
schema descriptions) themselves.

collective.lead contains policy-specific stuff and we didn't want to rip that
out.

z3c.zalchemy will be abandoned, z3c.sqlalchemy will likely switch over to
zope.sqlalchemy as well, and so will ore.alchemist. At least that's the plan.
