[Zope] - ANNOUNCE: TinyTable Beta 1

[Ty Sarna]

ANNOUNCING TinyTables Beta 1 (0.7.3)

TinyTable is a product designed to manage a small amount of
tabular data.  It's intended to fill the gap between a Tabula or an Z
SQL Methods accessed SQL table, which are overkill for many tasks, and
folder token properties, which allow only a single "column".  TinyTable
also makes it possible to look up an item within the list, or to return
a subset of the list rows where columns equal particular values.

Data within a TinyTable is directly editable within Zope, presented as
rows of delimited text. The delimited character can be chosen to suit
the data being used. Columns may be strings, ints, floats, or dates.

TinyTable supports pluggable brains, much like Z SQL Methods do.

This is the first Beta of TinyTable. It's believed to be stable, and the
internal data format isn't expected to change incompatably before the
final release. However, it's a Beta -- no guarantees.

This version is "read-only", in the sense that the data can only be
changed all at once, using the management interface. Future versions
will add methods for setting individual rows and fields within a row,
deleting rows, adding rows, etc.

Have fun, and please report any problems you encounter!
