[Community] PloneFormGen for postGIS datastore ?

[Ian]

Hi,
I have used PloneFormGen and been very happy with
it...so I think it is an extremely good idea to use it
to access a PosyGIS store ;)
IMHO it is difficult in Zope to make RDMS work so
*anything* which could abstract this process gets my
vote.
