[FLOW3-general] Disable Persistence and communicate directly with MySQL.

[Michael Feher]

Hallo Conor

As far is I know it is not possible to plug Flow3 on an existing 
database. At least not with the current version. However as far as I 
understood from the discussion here on the mailing lists is that the 
persistence Framework will be changed to use Doctrin2 as central 
component and this might give you the power to plug Flow3 on your 
existing database.

The work on this seams to be quite on a good track an I believe the next 
release of Flow3 should already include those changes.

So stay tuned.
