If you want to use databases in Zope through Python the choices are to: (a)
use ZSQL methods or (b) connect to whatever database you are using directly
through the Python driver. But if the choose (b) make sure you know what
you're doing and package up the transactions properly.

I guess you could try to re-write the ZSQL method yourself and go directly
to the DA but I don't know why you'd want to do that.

Also a good idea to check out the zope-db@[...].org list where questions
about relational databases should go - the archives might be helpful too.
