Why, of course there is :-)

Zope3's ZODB (which may be ZODB4, I don't know):

- makes heavy use of Interfaces

- separates the Persistence and Transaction frameworks

- doesn't use ExtensionClass, but rather depends on Python 2.2

this is a quick summary of a post Jim made to zodb-dev in
December.

Check out the CVS. These three features are easily spotted by
the file names and locations, you don't even need to look at the
sources.

My question was more to the tone of "how much of this is already
usable outside Zope3", specially considering Zope3 isn't usable
yet...

  It doesn't bother me that people say things like
   "you'll never get anywhere with this attitude".
   In a few decades, it will make a good paragraph
      in my biography. You know, for a laugh.
