That's better than a complete lack of documentation.

As soon as OD repairs my model, I will be posting a UML model of
ZCatalog.  This will be some hardcore digraming, but it might help.

Soon I will also release the Zope Portal Toolkit UML model
(incomplete).  This will give you a high level overview of a large
zclass/zcatalog based application.

Strangely enough, you are the third Pelletier in the Zope community.  At
least you name isn't Mike like the other two of us.  What's really weird
is my sister's name is Liz!
