Helping codeworks with their work on cache managers.
Helping out with:
   Maintaining the Event service
   Maintaining the "clams level" Security and wrappers stuff
   Planning a transaction-aware mail delivery service
   Maintaining the ObjectHub
   Planning and implementing the Indexing service


> 3. The project leader of that project (to which we can ask questions
> concerning the project)

Ask Gary Poster or me about Event, ObjectHub and Indexing.

Ask me, or various people at ZopeCorp/PythonLabs about security and 
wrappers. I'm happy to be a contact point for this, unless someone else 
wants to pipe up and volunteer.

Ask Barry Warsaw or me about a transaction-aware mail delivery service.

> 4. The status of the project (level of completeness)

Event Service: complete, but might want some UI/Views work.
Wrappers stuff: complete for an alpha release.
Security: ZopeSecurityPolicy needs reviewing. Some UI/Views work needs 
doing.
Transaction-aware mail delivery: pre-proposal stage.
ObjectHub: complete, but might want some UI/Views work.
Indexing service: exploratory prototypes underway, with a view to having 
a clear direction to work in before the Sprintathon.

> This doesn't have to be big, just see it as a very small prelude to a 
> chapter of a book.

I'll look at this later.
