[Pytables-users] Why didn't the ZODB work

[Ronald L C. <co...@ha...>]

I read the home page of the project, and saw that the 
author of pyTables tried the ZODB but didn't find it 
satisfactory.  Just out of sheer curiosity, why wasn't the 
ZODB satisfactory.

The reason that I ask is that I'm going through the same 
problem and am looking for a solution.  In this case, I 
have a set of text clauses in a document that need to be 
viewed in a hierarchical manner for drafting, but when 
"published" have to be in a sequential manner.  Thus, the 
"publisher" has to recursively go through the hierarchy 
and number the text elements (and reference the number of 
the parent element) and insert that into the text that is 
"published".

Would pyTables help me do that?

Thanks in advance,

Ron
