Hello all, CPS 3.5.3 will soon be out, now. As promised, it will offer support for both Zope 2.9 and Zope 2.10.
Here's a plan for post 3.5.3 development and support of decently recent Zope versions. Inputs welcome. - promote the 3.5.x series to 'stable' status, create the corresponding branches and declare the trunk (aka default) to be 3.6.0-devel. - CPS 3.6 will drop support for Zope 2.9, and ideally should require 2.12 or 2.13. - CPS 3.4 will become officially unsupported by the community. - eggification of all CPS products will be the first action in the new development trunk. - bug fixes and minor evolutions should be done in the 3.5 branch first, then merged into the trunk if possible. The 3.5 branch should keep on supporting Zope 2.9 and 2.10. That was for the actions, now the remarks and reasons why to proceed like this: What remains to be done for 3.5.3 is rather light : mostly a weird problem with the recursion of IObjectWillBeMoved and similar events (detected by CPSCore unit tests) with Zope 2.10 only, plus some more work on the 'special' treat. Several customer projects of mine will go live right over on CPS 3.5.3 Since last time the question has been raised on this list, I've been thinking a bit more about the migration to Zope >= 2.12 and made a few experiments. These show that while it's still possible to keep the old way of importing products, it's a major pain to launch the tests. Therefore, eggification has to come first, and we need at least Zope 2.10 to support it, rather than a direct jump to 2.12 or later. Once that's been done, I'm all in favor of a direct jump from 2.10 to 2.12/13, but in any case this will progress at its own pace, in a third branch derived from the new trunk if need be.
