Hey, I've been wondering when this was going to be possible. You can now use ZODB, the database behind Zope, from Python apart from Zope. Check out Standalone ZODB. "The StandaloneZODB product is a Python distutils package that provides the Z Object Database separately from Zope. It can be used in non-Zope related Python applications to provide transparent object-oriented persistency." I actually didn't know if this wasn't possible before, but I guess it wasn't
