Do! :)

I think it really needs to be reinforced: the posting says "the 
StandaloneZODB project's goal is to provide those same facilities to non-Zope 
related Python applications"... when it really should say "The StandaloneZODB 
provides a Python object persistency system." None of the other guff (though 
a mention of its history is fine, of course ;)

This package is perfectly usable _right_now_ for Python programs that need a 
data store. No longer do we have to shoe-horn our programs into an SQL 
framework.
