Here is the first release of code that exposes a ZODB database through CORBA (omniORB). The code is functioning, the docs are sparse, and it should work on your machines. ;-) I am only going to be in town for the next two days, then I will be unavailable until Jan 1. See http://www.zope.org/Members/jheintz/ZODB_CORBA_Connection to download the code. It's not perfect, but it works for me. Enjoy, John -- . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . John D.
