This is not a troll. It is a lot of work in Zope to create interfaces to
relational data for anything more than simple data models.
It's a lot less work in Maypole or Rails, but I don't want to go back to
writing in Perl, or needing to learn Ruby.
I do like Formulator but the documentation on it is weak. I don't want to
have to go rooting around in the source code or spending hours on weeding
through mailing lists for answers. I still have to screw around and glue
formulator to the data with python, zpt, and zsql methods. Archetypes seems
a lot closer to a fix, but there are problems with SQLStorage representing
anything more than simple relationships reliably.
It would be nice to have an object database that is ACID compliant.
Have you looked at Caché? You can download a fully-functional version to
play with, though it's got a fairly steep learning curve for
non-relational use:
