They told me nothing about catalogs, the gave me as hint, I should use
btrees to store the information I need, and hold it up to date by using
events!

This way, I had to construct a btrees for each "type of search" I want
to do...

That's at all not terrible hard to do, but I'm shure, something like
finding objects is that important, tha a programmer of applications
shouldn't take care about. Zope should provide him with an easy way to
do it!

If it would be realy that easy, I take back my mail, and start using
it!
