The Zope Aquisition model is very powerfull, and Kubes leverage it's 
'sliding' behavior by acting as a single 'document' with content 
existing as 'hookable' metadata (properties and file objects).

This enables user to get the core functtionality of a SQL database, but 
using the Zope Object Database- (therefore the data object is completely 
extensible, movable, and mallieable- all in real time, with live data.)

Kubes should speed the development of data-driven, ZPT based 
applications and websites considerably.

The default data types for Kubes are oriented around a publishing-model 
'story content unit' idea, but can be changed to accomodate whatever 
data you want to put in them!
