  Description     : a Python object database

   Divmod Axiom is an object database, or alternatively, an
   object-relational mapper, implemented on top of Python.
   .
   Its primary goal is to provide an object-oriented layer with the key
   aspects of OOP (Object Oriented Programming), i.e. polymorphism and
   message dispatch, without hindering the power of an RDBMS (Relational
   DataBase Management System).
   .
   Axiom is a live database, not only an SQL generation tool: it
   includes an implementation of a scheduler service, external file
   references, automatic upgraders, robust failure handling, and Twisted
   integration.
   .
   Axiom is tightly integrated with Twisted, and can store, start, and
   stop Twisted services directly from the database using the included
   'axiomatic' command-line tool.
   .
   Note: Axiom currently supports only SQLite and does NOT have any
   features for dealing with concurrency.

As per the "epsilon" ITP I'm looking forward for comments on preliminary
versions of the package, will I'll notify via this ITP bug.
