It's already as open source as I can make it, what you see is what we
have, and I'll keep committing as I keep writing code and figuring out
the documentation. Is there something else I can do? If anyone with a
contributor agreement wants to hack on the code, that can be arranged too.
I should poke on some of the Python mailing lists (that's where the
community is, right?). I'll see if I can find the right place. Not
everyone is interested in distributed agreement. :-)

An ORM would definitely be nicer than ham-handed use of pickle. I
wonder if ZODB offers enough control over when the object gets written
to disk, though. Definitely certified http should support different
backends in any case.

Yeah, totally. Is there a good HOWTO on that? We should do that for
eventlet and mulib too, because that would be rad.
