First: Remember that all of the above are either _alpha_ or beta, AFAIK. IOW, not aimed at
production/still in development.

That will make the rest of it come into perspective, and help keep blood pressure form
spiraling ;^)

Next:
For membership, you add members by 'joining the site'. That is what Membership's intent
is, so of course it won't provide documentation on how to do the above.

To use your gadfly db for users would mean you need to write a Usersource fo rLogin
Manager that would do this. Membership, and the default LoginManager stuff does not (yet)
do this. For details on how to do this see
http://www.zope.org/Members/tsarna/LoginManager/Help/API.txt
and post questions on this to zope-dev, since that is the appropriate list.
