[Zope] Session

[Dennis Allison]

No problem.  I want to write a monitoring program to maintain running
sumamries of users.   We store a lot of information as session variables 
and so I'll want to look at the stored session variable for all active 
sessions.  This does not appear to be possible without doing a Product 
or using an External Method--I've already built a bit of a framework for 
what I need using external methods.
