(4) Mon Jun 02 2008 18:35 Grok Status Update Part 1:

Time for a Grok status report. I thought the Grokkerdam sprint was very successful. It is now a few weeks behind us. A fun time was had by the participants and we got a lot of work done. What's more we've had followup on many of the projects started there - people have continued the work started at the sprint.

(5) Fri Jun 20 2008 15:12 A misconception about the ZODB:

The ZODB is a powerful object database for Python objects. It's very mature - it's been around for more than a decade. It is transactional, has advanced features like clustering (ZEO), blob support, and yes, it can be used independently from Zope. Zope 2, Zope 3 and Grok all use the ZODB as its default data storage, and it's seen a lot of battle testing.

(14) Wed Jun 25 2008 02:53 Zope's entry into the commit count pissing match:

Mark Ramm-Christensen of the TurboGears project starts what looks like it will be a great commit count pissing match . I know that wasn't his intent. He just wanted to show the TurboGears project is active. But nevertheless, this kind of thing tends to get rather silly rather quickly, so we certainly can't leave Zope out!
