[ale] Question: Transparent document sharing over the Internet

[Jeff Hubbs]

I'm not sure about PostgreSQL's ability to store arbitrary binaries -
and you'd have to write something to interface with it if it did - but I
know that Zope can do this sort of thing if you let your participants
"under the hood" of the app server and let them upload arbitrary files
as Zope objects.
