I am interested in persistence issues and have been actively
working on a project to provide persistence for a custom GUI
application development framework (Mindwrapper). The reason I have
not posted to this SIG is that the early discussion here was on a
plane several orders of magnitude higher than my own project. If
discussion here were to pick up I would follow it with interest,
but I likely would not participate much more actively than I have
been to date.  I have also followed PyPerSyst with some interest,
but to this point I can't see how to integrate it into the
Mindwrapper framework.
