Re: Tour of ZODB

 I highly recommend that people take a look at the slides. 

https://github.com/zopefoundation/ZODB/blob/tour/misc/tour/slides.rst <https://github.com/zopefoundation/ZODB/blob/tour/misc/tour/slides.rst>

They really show what you are thinking.  The video lost the core message. 
In particular it would be good if you could shrink your value proposition to 7 points. 
At the beginning of the talk say these are the seven points I am making.  And then as you 
enter each new point, show that is the point you are making.  Create a tree in the users mind, and
keep reminding them where they are in the tree. 

Then that whole demo becomes part of how easy it is to use. 

Let me see if I can paraphrase it. 

The ZODB is the best database out there.  It will support thousands of writes a second.  Sure that is 
a bit slower than most relational databases, but look at what you get….

Simple, natural, development model (very little impedance mismatch).
Transactions
Consistent caching
Pluggale Storages
Easy testing
Garbage collection
Database-managed files
Distriuted Transactions
Mature
In contrast my talk is working at a higher level of abstraction.  What the user sees. 
I really emphasize naming different pieces, so that they can dig further.

Anyhow thanks for your presentation.  I will integrate it into my talk, the next time I will do it. 

I would love it if someone who uses a relational database every day did a short talk comparing 
using the ZODB to using a Relational Database.  

Warm Regards
