Glad to see security of ZEO connections is getting an airing, it'd be very
useful :-)

For the same project, can anyone tell me how many ZEO clients you can usefully
connect to one storage server?

Also, I remember whispers of a distributed storage server a while back... would
this mean there could be serveral storage servers for the same ZODB increasing
the number of ZEO clients that could connect?

Finally, what's the minimum I need, in terms of libraries, etc, to open a ZEO
connection to a storage server so I can start playing with objects in the ZODB?

cheers,

Chris

PS: This is all looking towards building a fat client for Zope, based on Python
and using a ZEO connection to get hold of the objects.
