Re: [Zope-dev] ZPL and GPL

On 27 Jun 2001 09:06:16 -0400, Paul Everitt wrote: 1) I wanted to specifically address something in Michael's post here. We fully expect people to profit from Zope, even if that means for-fee, intact redistributions. They simply have to provide credit. Others may have a different philosophy, but that's ours. This is similar in some regards to Perl's and Apache, I believe. i think that nobody (ever gpl-oriented people like me) have anything against making profit from free software. profit means more time and resources to write even better software, profit is *good*. 2) We specifically expect to produce a packaged version of Zope. It's clear that it's the only way to appeal to the mainstream market. We hope others do the same. that's a business strategy. good or bad has nothing to do with licensing. i wish you all possible luck with a packaged version of zope. i'll even buy one if includes a well-written well-printed manual about zope internals... ;-) 3) Regarding other posts, our license is nearly identical to Apache's license, close enough legally to say it is the same. Therefore, to say Zope isn't free enough is to say Apache isn't free enough. Anybody that says that loses a fair amount of credibility, at least with me. Apache is an example of a crossover success (open and commercial) that I think provides a fantastic role model. again, i agree. apache. *is* free. zope *is* free. end of the argument. 4) Any changes in the license are likely to be more in the direction of an Apache-style license. let me try to explain why this is bad and a gpl-compatible license will be better. a lot of people, like me, wants other use their work, even for making money. but we want something back. this is why the gpl is good. if you use my work you can: 1/ release your sources under a gpl compatible license; or 2/ give me some money for an alternate license: this is good because i'll use the money to write even more software (see it as an exchange, you can keep your sources propietary but you finance someone for writing free code that will be made available to the community.) the main problem with licenses like tha apache one is that they allow people to use public, free code without giving *anything* back. with its current license dc is forcing *me* to release under a license that i don't like (ZPL) because if i release my software unsed the gpl nobody will be able to redistribute it. this will make more and more people like me abandon zope first or later (i hope later). the current license surely does not push away companies that don't want to open their sources but what good come from that? nothing. no software for us and no money for dc. what if the zpl would be gpl-compatible? the situation will be reversed. a lot of people will continue to write and distribute zope products and the occasional company not wanting to release will pay dc and other developers for an alternate license. this will make *everybody* happy. as i said before the *worst* case for zope going gpl-compatible is the no-harm situation, while going apache-like is a little harm to some entusiast developers and surely no good. i finished. no more mail on this argument, and sorry for my bad english, i wrote this one in an hurry... federico -- Federico Di Gregorio MIXAD LIVE Chief of Research Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian GNU/Linux Developer Italian Press Contact[EMAIL PROTECTED] Don't dream it.

I'm not aware of anyone doing this right now, though there was a zwiki package for Debian GNU/linux at one point. Would Debian be in violation shipping both zope zwiki packages on a cd ? If they thought so, sooner or later one or the other would get dropped from the distribution. Unfortunate and detrimental to both zwiki and zope. In principle this would apply to all linux distributions. not only. i can assure you that somebody in debian find even a single line of gpl code in the zope main packge zope will be removed from the distribution until license compatibility is (re)estabilished. same story for zope products currently available in debian. i don't have all that time, so i wont be the guy doing that, but, first or later, someone will surely try to track down all the licens incompatibilities in zope debian packages. just look at the kde/qt problem (now fortunately resolved...) Does this serve as an example of a problem with the current situation for DC management ? Another would be the fact that DC's own options are limited if it (DC) ever had the desire to distribute or sell something leveraging zwiki. Sure, it could convince me that LGPL makes better sense, or offer me a large sum of money to draw up a special alternate license (hey, on the double :-). But this would have to be repeated with each developer where the situation arose. right. maybe dc has some to gain froma gpl-compatible zope and not only the no-harm i detailed before. Probably better to update the ZPL to solve this problem in one sweep, ensure that zope is participating fully within the preeminent sphere of software creativity, and earn a whole bunch of new support from the world developer community.

I do very much care whether or not I can use a GPL Zope Python Product with my ZPL/TPL Zope Python Product. If I can't, and someone tells me I need to relicense my product as GPL it would be very bad. An example could be if I had application G, Z, P. G is a GPL'ed Zope Python Product, Z is a ZPL/TPL Zope Python Product and P is some proprietory stuff I developed for my client. Now, if the proprietory application P interacts with my Z application and Z needs to become GPL, then that would/could require the proprietary stuff I did for the client to become GPL as well. you are quite right. but here, again, we have a lexical problem. are zope products really linked? gpl forbids liking but there is no problem, for example, in piping the data froma gpl'ed program to a proprietary one. i can only say that **if** zope products count as linked, you can't in any way use gpl code without releasing *all* the code under a gpl compatible license (P included.) anyway, is much better for you to ask the author of the gpl'ed program for an alternate license. a lot of people will be happy to allow you to use the program in a proprietary software for a little (or not so little) fee... and if you have those problems is because you think you'll make some money out of it, right? other people won't and your only option is to rewrite the product or (much better!) ask the customer to release under the gpl. Then, I get hell. If the client has to disclose their business trade-secrets, the stuff that really makes them them, I'd be sued so hard I'd see stars for another three decades :) i'll finish with some bad words, sorry: if the client is so worried about intellectual property and secrets why is he even thinking about free software? free software is good in a lot (in a different context i would say 'all') of cases but imposes some constraints ont your work and (unfortunately) *even* on your clients. ciao, federico -- Federico Di Gregorio MIXAD LIVE Chief of Research Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian GNU/Linux Developer Italian Press Contact[EMAIL PROTECTED] Qu'est ce que la folie?

In other words, given to concurrent queries: update foo set a = a + 1 update foo set a = a + 2 Assuming these overlap, and a starting value of 0 for "a", read committed mode would result in "a" either being 1 or 2; serializable mode (with my patch) would result in "a" getting set to 3. this is, imho, the Right Thing (TM), so psycopg will stay serializable. thank you again for the patch. federico -- Federico Di Gregorio MIXAD LIVE Chief of Research Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian GNU/Linux Developer Italian Press Contact[EMAIL PROTECTED] God is real.

[Zope-dev] Re: your mail
Scavenging the mail folder uncovered Randall F. Kern's letter: [snip] Concurrent updates are not supported in the serializable transaction mode; if one transaction tries to update (or delete) a row that has already been updated by a concurrent uncommitted transaction, the second transaction will fail with a "concurrent update" error. mmm... are they supported in the read commited mode? if yes it will be easy to add this mode as on option to psycopg cursors and use it in zope. do you know how much faster would it be compared to the serialized mode? Given that the default transaction mode for these DAs is Serializable, and Zope has this nifty support for ConflictErrors and retrying transactions already, I propose Postgres DAs should convert the concurrent update serialization errors into ConflictErrors automatically. I've been running this way for a few days, and everything seems great. Any reasons why this might be good/bad/ugly very welcome. (Like: is it safe to throw a ConflictError at any random time during processing? From a quick glance at ZODB it seems they are only thrown at commit time now) Here is a small patch to ZPsyccopgDA 0.5.1 that implements this change: thank you very much for the patch. i am waiting to know what others think about it (i am not a ZODB expert) before we incorporate it. ciao, federico -- Federico Di Gregorio MIXAD LIVE Chief of Research Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian GNU/Linux Developer Italian Press Contact[EMAIL PROTECTED] Don't dream it.

[Zope-dev] New PostgreSQL Database Adapters: psycopg and ZpsycopgDA
Hi *, the guys here at initd (http://initd.org/) arre happy to announce the release of psycopg, a Python/PostgreSQL driver module and ZPsycopgDA, a Zope Database Adapter based on the psycopg driver. Now, I'll answer the questions you asked... (_what_ questions? well... follow me...) Q. Why another postgresql dba? we already have pygres and popy! A. That's true. We had some ideas about a performant, thread-safe driver and we wanted to hack a little bit. the resulting driver is slim, fast, with clean code and some nice features (see below.) Writing a Zope DBA was a logical consequence only because we use it. Q. Should I switch to psycopg and zpsycopgda? A. Not if you are happy with your current driver [and i hope it is popy ;-)] The only real reason is if you want the advanced features you can find only in psycopg: 1/ level-2 thread safety 2/ advanced type-casting system 3/ automatic management of multiple phisical connections to the DB (one per thread) to speed up queries 4/ extremely clean and maintainable code also, in a future release (0.5) zpsycopgda will support db and table management from zope management screens. Q. Hey! you're from MIXAD LIVE, is psycopg a popy fork? A. No, psycopg is 100% clean code. we had some ideas on how a db driver should workin a heavily multithreaded environment and we wanted to test them. that's all. Q. Where can I download it? A. http://initd.org/Software/psycopg (tarball and precompiled debian packages) ciao and good hacking, federico -- Federico Di Gregorio MIXAD LIVE Chief of Research Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian GNU/Linux Developer Italian Press Contact[EMAIL PROTECTED] Qu'est ce que la folie?

Re: [Zope] PoPy1.4 Installed:
Here Is some tips to install PoPy DA on a RH6.2 First: You have to use Postgres7.0 with PoPy1.4 - download the Postgres7.0 with the development libraries (the development RPM from the Postgres download) - Download the Popy1.4.1 and the ZPopyDA0.7 - untar Popy1.4.1 - $./configure mmm... ./configure --postgreql-includes=/usr/include/pgsql is much better (do a ./configure --help to display all the configuration options...) - change the Makefile ... the include path isn't /usr/include/postgres but it's /usr/include/pgsql not required if you do as above. - the file /usr/include/pgsql/os.h is a broken link .. we have to solve this prob yes, this is a problem. - copy the popymodule.so in the [zopedir]/lib/python no. popy should live in the *python* hierarchy. just do a "make install" and make will take care of installing it in the right directory (usually /usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages or the local alternative.) ciao, federico -- Federico Di Gregorio MIXAD LIVE Chief of Research Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian GNU/Linux Developer Italian Press Contact[EMAIL PROTECTED] All programmers are optimists. -- Frederick P.

[Zope] Best wishes
Dear PoPy and ZPoPyDA users, last days, a lots of stuff happened here at MIXAD LIVE. the most important to you is that source code for the programs is not in our cvs server anymore and the home page was moved to the official Zope site[1]. To make it short, thierry and eric decided to not work for MIXAD LIVE anymore. so, what will change for you PoPy users? hopefully nothing... we'll continue to submit patches (we are using the product a lot) and to host the mailing list (unless they wants to move it away.) i will personally keep on packaging PoPy and ZPoPyDA for the Debian distribution. we also want to transfer to thierry the copyright of all the work done by us on the programs, to give him total freedom. i think PoPy and ZPoPyDA will grow better and better in the future. what can i say more? maybe "good luck" to them and "keep on hacking"... federico [1] http://www.zope.org/Members/tm/ZPoPyDA -- Federico Di Gregorio MIXAD LIVE Chief of Research Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian GNU/Linux Developer Italian Press Contact[EMAIL PROTECTED] Qu'est ce que la folie?

[Zope] Re: [Fwd: [Zope] Announce: ZBabel a Translation Assistant for Zope]
hi *,
i read with much interest this thread about ZBabel, because
it seems to do something like the Translator product.
Suppose web site in source language has something like this:
'Click A href="{fieldX(someVar.A)}"here/A, for {fieldY(someVar.B)}'
With suitably horrific DTML instead of ' ' and {}.
Rendered english result would be, for some particular dynamic instance of
someVar:
'Click A href="http://www.zope.org/"here/A for Zope'
Translator for language X decides to reverse the positions of fieldA and
fieldB and use 3 separate substrings, because it is too abrupt for that
language, so translates to something like:
'If you would like {fieldY(someVar.B)}, click A
href="{fieldX(someVar.A)}"this link/A, please'
There are now 3 substrings in the translation because it would be rude not
to start or end with something like "please" in language X, and it reads
better with the fields reversed in that language.
Final rendered result becomes (in language X):
'If you would like Zope, click A href="http://www.zope.org/"this link/A,
please'
depending on the particular value of someVar at the time.
ok. Translator allows for that using just one (1) translated string.
you create a translator and put inside it a translated item (naming
it my_localized_text, for example):
language1:
Click A href="dtml-var "someVar.A""here/A,
for dtml-var "someVar.B"
language2:
If you would like dtml-var "someVar.B", click A
href="dtml-var "someVar.A""this link/A, please.
Then in the main body of your page you put:
dtml-lvar my_localized_text
and you get exactly what you want.
BTW, Translator also allow you to take an url of a localized object,
to do stuff like:
img src="dtml-lvar first_logo_png url" usemap=...
At now, the Transaltor does not support at now an easy way to generate
catalogues (as ZBabel does, i think.) I'll add that in a future release.
Or, if the author of ZBabel wants, we can try to merge the two projects
to and produce a single, usefull product.
ciao,
federico
