Thanks for responding. Well, I choose this list because I thought (without extensive Zope knowledge) a possible solution would be to use an external DB, like MySQL for example, on a separate server for all client data and only use the ZoDB for site/programming related data. My thought was then that I could point both the production server and the test server at that DB server. I take it this isn't easy to achieve ? > and you have found the fatal flaw with Zope: > it is really hard to separate programming/configuration from the site > data.

It was my understanding though that you can use an external DB in conjunction with the ZoDB, wouldn't it be possible to put my client-entered data (form responses mostly) on this external DB ?
