I don't think it is "hated" - but you want to have a developer set up your buildout, first. Sysadmins can handle appending stuff to an existing buildout. However, this is precisely the point here - the plone4_buildout template IS out of date. If you install from the standard installer, you GET a buildout-based install - that a number of developers have put a lot of effort into getting right. A much more reliable buildout than one built from scratch with paster. > 2) Buildout sets password and stores it as plaintext > > Maybe we can change the message to say "If you are not a developer, don't do > this?" I'm not sure what the point is, or what the connection between those two statements is. I don't think the installer or paster do this any differently. _______________________________________________ Product-Developers mailing list Product-Developers@lists.plone.org https://lists.plone.org/mailman/listinfo/product-developers
