Hi Alex,
I suppose the vital issue for a mulit-user, server-side database is going to be
concurrency - does it look to users that they are getting the immediate attention of
the server, or are they left hanging around? Moreover, can these
Hi Bernard,
Furthermore, there is the whole issue of locking for writes to the
database. I'm not sure if the Serendipity db has any locking
mechanism.
The single-user version of SDB currently available at my ftp site
does not; the Client/Server version now being alpha tested does.

Wow! Sounds cool. Is there a URL or discussion group for this?

Everyone,
Jan passed his thoughts on some of this to me privately. I'm posting
my response to the list because (a) I think I know him well enough
that he won't mind, and (b) to save any else the time of correcting
me regarding selecting all columns of a single record.
In our projects, we set
Hi Rob,
I did take a look on your web site a few weeks or months ago for some documentation on
SDB. I didn't find it, and guessed that you thought that anyone who was really
interested would take a look at the code, since you kindly make it available for us to
read. Sorry, I was too lazy,

IIRC, the altBrowser is IE only?
No, you can also set it up to use Mozilla/NetScape, if installed!

Hi Alex,
Thanks for the comments. It is helping me to think things through.
I do not think people should be prevented from using Rev on the server
side, for lack of documentation or supporting.
I agree. I too wish that the documentation on CGI programming with Rev was more
pronounced.

I asked what Runrev's plans for XML were, and pointed out that it seemed to be a bit unclear as to the purpose of including XML functionality in the latest version.
Huh? Maybe I don't understand the question. Obviously the purpose was to have an XML parser.

Hi Alex,
I think that any of the xTalk/Hypercard-based models already have much of what is
offered by ZODB. The Zope object database is just a way of saving in-memory objects
to a persistent data store. As I understand it (in principle), ZODB is just an
database for objects, written in

stacks than the objects that get packed away into the ZODB...
