Hi, if I got things right, here's what happened:
- We took the first day's morning to have everyone talk about ideas they have for moving the ZODB further. This resulted in a feature list which you find attached. - Jim started reviewing the various branches and got the `blob-bushy-directory` branch merged to ZODB 3.8. The merge for ZODB 3.9 (trunk) remains to be done. (Jim: I'd be happy to do so) - Dieter worked on giving persistent objects a size hint based on the pickle size which will allow us in the future to have cache strategies based on size (instead/in addition to object counts). - After my iteration branch was reviewed by Jim I worked on cleaning some rough corners and got it merged a few minutes ago. - Laurence Rowe worked on a pure Python implementation of the `Persistent` base class. This will both help to have the ZODB run on non-CPython implementations of Python and also is a move toward a separation of Persistent objects and caches. - Dieter also started working on having ZEO clients drop their cache files instead of verifying them, whenever they currently would start a `full verification` as this would usually be a huge performance hit for larger caches. - We found and fixed a couple smaller issues along the way.

================================== Feature notes from the ZODB sprint ================================== Those are the notes as we put them down on the white boards. Beware: some of them aren't straight-forward understandable from those notes. - Guaranteed life time for volatile attributes proposal - Dieter's cache organisation proposal - Clean up interface between `Persistent` and the object cache - ZEO: Have vote run in a separate thread - ZEO: Improve logging for blocked transactions - Instrument ZEO client/server communication - General ZODB cleanup/simplification: - General deabstractifications - Simplify client connection handling in ClientStorage - Move ZEO to use zc.ngi - Redo persistence (see Jim's proposal) - merge weakref branch - Merge bushy branch (3.9 remains to do) - Move conflict resolution to the client - BTrees: refactoring for a more simple type support - BTrees: getstate/setstate (handle instance dicts) - BTrees: per instance splitting parameters - General ideas were discussed about various eager loading strategies, although none of them were found to be good enough to implement right away. - `Sub-persistent`: let persistent objects decide whether they want to create a new database record or not. - Pre-fetch cached values on invalidation.
