I cannot answer for Niels, but I know that loosing ZODB-phobia takes
time. (Considering that I've been into this Zope stuff, since when it
was called Bobo and Principia ;) )

Coming from other environments, ZODB plays into a number of hidden fears
of developers:
-) Where is my CVS?
-) Why would I want to store in one way my data, my templates and my
code?
-) How will I get my data if something breaks?
-) ...

Fact is, that most of these fears are either not real, or not such a big
hassle as a newbie assumes, ...

But it takes time to get used to it.
