Hi Max

I took a completly different approach. All data is stored in a
document class which inherits from Folder. All these documents have
an unique ID and are in one BTree.

This layout is the best for me, since I am interested in a kind of
Document Management System.

This scales very well, but one problem is, the creation of unique
IDs. (See mailinglist archive)


BTW, What is your last name? (Max *M*)
BTW2: The btree-based relation.py I mailed you some weeks ago
is broken. The keys in BTrees must all be of the same type or you
get really strange behaviour. I think I will use ZCatalog.
