I would be fine with combining the Zope 2 and the ZODB sprint, FWIW.

I think it would be useful to define a "blob access API" that is
independent of implementation.  For example, I already have a simple
"blob" implementation for Zope 2 that is a consumer of ZODB transaction
management, but it writes to and reads from the filesystem directly
using normal Python file APIs rather than using a ZODB/ZEO API to
perform reads and writes.  That product is attached for the curious. 
The API couldn't get much simpler, so maybe it could also be an
inspiration for a "ZODBBlob" API.

I would be happy to visit ZC FBurg in order to act as secretary in
charge of writing up and publishing ideas for adding blobs to ZODB in
prep of Pycon.
