Hi Oliver,

I've too thought about writing a frontend to the tutos database in zope. 
Sadly I didn't have the time to even begin with something since then, 
but I really like the idea.
My ideas were to completly use the database structure of tutos, 
including users, but I haven't checked if this is viable.
In any case, what I have seen from the structure of tutos' tables, there 
are a lot of references in there. This is one reason why I wouldn't want 
to use the ZODB for storing the data. And it doesn't make sense IMO to 
reinvent the wheel, again and again like the plethora of unfinished 
groupware project for zope and elsewhere.

I even wrote an email to the author, and he quite liked the idea, 
because he always had portability of the frontend in his mind.

Drop me an email about how you would like to go on about this, and I'll 
see what I can do to help you.


cheers,
oliver
