... when I am developing applications with jade/Gemstone etc I have some
problems understanding how to make it "right":

The environment: GS running under Linux in a VirtualBox, Jade on the
same machine.

-> When starting, the development is done with Jade and the user
DataCurator.

-> Now I would like to run the end-user application. Should one create
another db user to run the end user application ?

-> this end-user application is running in its own gem, right ? Must I
use Topaz and several filein (in a batch) to import the sources and then
start the application from within Topaz ?

-> Can I develop further on (in parallel) with Jade and DataCurator ?

-> can I update the running end-user-application while it is running to
get new method versions - or do I have to stop that gem and restart it
again  ?

When developing server applications - which I really would like to do,
if I could at least file in all needed sources do I understand it correctly:

- that within a gem only ONE request at a time can be handled (also due
to global transaction management)

  - that means: wait for request, abort transaction, do request work,
abort or commit changes, wait for request  etc ...
