Not when you can see that in plain english from no more than two clicks
off of Zope's homepage. The level of difficulty or the complexity to do
it is irrelevant, since that wasn't the issue.  The author's gripe (in
this case) was that Zope is sooo OOP, and that Zope docs don't explain
OO concepts to users. The fact that Zope can talk to RDMSes was
conveniently left out, and the fact that you can do so is not hidden in
any way on zope.org. It is right there in plain sight, two clicks from
the main page. How can that be a Zope Documentation Problem (ZDP?,
oops,that's taken ;-) )
