For a CMF or Plone project you can put your ZSQL methods into a skins
folder (as files *.zsql). They are recognized automatically a ZSQL methods 
and be
be re-used through the standard acquistion magic as any other method.
Creating ZSQL methods as methods of a Zope product is somewhat un-common
but it can be done afaik by instantiating ZSQL methods (using their API 
which can
be found from the sources).
