[Z3-zemantic] Re: big zemantic storage / some changes

[David Pratt]

Hi Tarek.  The product I was referring to is called MailManager.  The 
organization responsible is logicalware.  The fellow's name is Andrew 
Veitch andrew at logicalprogression.net and this is his product and he has 
done a very nice job of it.

You can download the product from http://mailmanager.sourceforge.net.   
I am hoping to begin making some good use of it in the next month or 
two and I know of others that are pleased with its performance 
including Zettai.net that use it for pretty much all their contact 
management.  Their is work ongoing to make the backend storage in 
relational database in postgres is what I understand.

Do you have the code and any instructions for Zope2 as a lib to get me 
started?  Tres has just provided a starting point for Zope2 indexing 
but am uncertain that this the same work that you and Michel has been 
able to get working with Zope 2.  In any case, a couple of pointers to 
help me get started would really be appreciated since I am keen on this 
and learning more.  Hopefully I can help on some type of Zope2 
implementation since I will be working in this space for a while to 
come as much as I want to take time to learn zope3.

Regards,
David
