I need to allow users to store  large amounts of files (PDF, doc) in a =
database (or directory), with several information linked to the file =
(author, title, description ...). Then Index the content of the files to =
be able to search.=20

Would it be advisable to use the ZODB to store these files (say more =
than 5.000 files or +/- 1 GB)  ? How would you link the additional =
information to the file and catalog the whole file content ?=20

If there are any additional plug-ins required, please advise.

Thanks to you all.
