Ugh, I really need to make sure I don't misrepresent things.

We have some software that is "above the line" and some that is "below
the line".  Above the line software is not generally available.  We
might save it for our consulting customers, for partners (people that
give case studies, etc.), or people contributing to projects (for
instance, when the Zone takes off).

Below the line software is publicly available.  Some is supported (e.g.
Zope) and some is unsupported (UserDB and Confera).

Z Tables is above the line.  The "guts" of Z Tables are below the
line.  The reasons are mostly pragmatic:

1) We don't have enough resources to support *more* free stuff, as we
are
having a hard enough time supporting what's already there.

2) The user documentation is incomplete.

3) There is no programmer documentation.

4) Adding value to consulting relationships.

There is a "Data" tab that lets you add a single record, edit a record,
or delete one/many records.
