We aren't ODMG compliant at this point. It would be a bit of work to
be compliant.  The hardest part would be OQL support.

I'd love to see ZODB be ODMG compliant, but we (DC) don't have 
a significant need for it at this time. If anyone has a strong need, 
I'd be happy to help out with advice.  Of course, our priorities 
can change. ;)

P.S. I'll offer to buy anyone who (seriously) wants to work on this
     a copy of the ODMG spec. :)
