Hi Ken

Thanks for those links.
Looks interesting. Just don't know where to find time to elaborate on these ...

Theoretical questions aside, the notable object-data systems doing
useful things now are the open-source web frameworks using the
Model-View-Controller model. Ruby on Rails is the prime example.

Since I have far from a deep understanding of MVC, I will just point out
that the data objects are modeled in code, and changes in the data
objects are reflected to the table structure of the underlying database.


One challenge that future OO DBMS projects will have is equalling or
bettering the ease-of-use of these MVC frameworks. One thing is certain:
they'll never beat the price.
