thanks for the response.  I'll have a look at amrita and look forward to 
seeing Jigsaw when its out!

while I'm asking questions - what about persistence frameworks... I'm 
developing a little web-app for my own educational purposes, atm I'm 
using PStore for persistence, which works fine, but I'm going to run 
into some pretty serious performance problems I imagine.  Are there any 
O/R mapping frameworks, or other persistence solutions around?

cheers, and thanks again
