All my database interaction is via a class with high-level methods, so I could spawn a process that reads the database with FileStorage and publishes the API class via SimpleXMLRPCServer, and provide a dummy class for the clients that forwards all method calls to the data server. Does that sound like a good approach? -- Mike Orr
