I mean the component like IBEvents, I know that only Interbase and Firebird that have this "events" thing. But perhaps it'll also supported by ZeosDBO.

For the moment I see no trace of a similar component in Zeoslib coding. So if you feel like coding it, please do not hesitate.

I know there are some people waiting for it, but for the moment we don't have programmers in the team (which became very small) who offered to spend time on new features.

Just some remark : If you do so, do it carefully in such a way that we can plug in this feature for other databases later. Some databases evolve quite quick (eg mysql) and we don't want to rewrite everything to implement it then. Even better, this would enable others to write their own (or our??) hack for databases not supporting events. (Like reading a query on an event table triggered by a timer component every minute)
