Andreas (and the people in the background for whom he occasionally speaks but rarely tells names) succeeded to change my priorities: There are so many other interesting things that I do not need to spend my time with Zope. As an exercise for my future removal from the Zope mailing lists, I did not look at them for the last 6 weeks -- and I missed nothing during this time. I probably will in the future again read the mailing lists from time to time and will implement and publish what I already have promissed (external ZClasses release, external test facility without buildout). But it looks like I will do a lot less with and for Zope in the future. -- Dieter ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Hi there, this is an email I wanted to write for several times in the past. I find it very sad, that grown up people that are extremely knowledgeable and the source of lots of incredibly helpful advice *nobody* else seems to be able or willing to give, contributers of a wealth of tools the whole zope community would be worse off without, do not have the the *maturity* to withheld their personal animosity. if I would be their papa, I would threaten to smack their buts! I would hate not to hear any of the well founded, albeit controversial opinions some of us feel committed to share at times. Its a funny democracy that only accepts divers forms of yes. *And doomed to fail*. however I loath the stupid bickering that springs up as soon as any of a couple of contributers deign not to be of the same opinion.

I'm dutch and have had a decent education and therefore do understand german as well. I am not sure what this is all about, but 'ob man Dich nicht von den Listen werfen sollte' sounds to me like whether you should not be removed from the list. I cannot take that as anything else than a threat, may be not from you personally, but nevertheless a threat. I am a part of the silent majority that uses Zope 2 and happily so. I am willing to keep up with new developments, but have not much time to learn new tricks of the trade.

Did you think that I'm considering myself part of these comunity? Since the first time I wrote here you are telling me that I'm wrong even if you don't know a word of what I'm doing Did you think that I have good opinion about Zope, at this time, to contribute? I make a contribution that no one except Tim Nash make any kind of comment (thanks again Tim!) By now I only use Plone at work for money not for passion and I make things by money or by passion What kind of contribution do you think someone needs to do to be respected? Something that you think it was useful or something that the contruibutor thinks it was? Perhaps if you know how to hear you could think that ZSM (or other products) will be interessat for the Zope community But you choose what you choose This is what do open source big: you could be agree with a community or you can make your own way I choose the tools I'm using because they are great ideas AND has a good people how wants to help and wants to be a community Zope is a great idea, with people how wants to help except when they don't understand what are you doing and you don't say nothing about the future of your investment (and yes we are investing like you our time and money with something that you create, we are confiding our lives to you movements.

Andreas, On feb 28 you sent this private email to me as a part of a thread about sqlite: Hopefully you won't release your trash to the public :-) - -aj Andreas, please keep up the great work but take a break every now and then. I appreciated your advice, but not that email because you clearly weren't just joking, it was the only private email you have ever sent me (other than a *shrug*). You are a representative of Zope, please raise the bar as Peter says. I really doubt that anyone wants Dieter cut off from this list. Dieter's contributions over the years are thoughtful and well written. If you cut him off from this list, take me off as well. It looks like zope is at an inflection point. Zope2 and Zope 3 seem closer than ever. Lennart has discussed a good plan for going forward. His reasoning is positive and clear. We can all be idiots (including me) or we can build with this group and this opportunity.

Re: [Zope] [Zope-dev] Zope 4.0, maybe not such a bad idea...
My preferred Zope-future would be: 1. The Zope Framework dependency cleanup project continues. When cleanup is deemed reasonably finished, we rename the framework Zope 4. 2. Zope 3 The Application server moves over to zope.pipeline or similar, and gets a new name, and becomes one of the application servers that run on the Zope Framework. I propose the name Blue Bream (another name for the fish Zope). Version can be 1.0 or 4.0, no matter. 3. Grok moves over either to Zope.pipeline or repose.bfg as publisher in Grok 2. 4. Zope 2 moves permanently over to a better publisher, possibly repoze,Zope2, or something based on zope.pipeline. We stick our heads into actually redoing the security with proxies, in a not necessarily completely backwards compatible way. This would be Zope 5, but the name is better as Zope Legacy Server. 5 or 4. That would leave us with Zope Framework v 4.0 or something, and four servers running on Zope Framework.

Andrew Milton wrote: I think making a distinction between the app servers and the framework/architecture is a good idea, it then just becomes a matter of educating our current or potential users. Indeed, I hope you'd agree that differentiating them both by nothing more than version number is bad, especially given that the framework uses the same version number as one of the app servers, and yet the framework is *used* in both of them... If we want the name Zope to reference the underlying technology then the app servers for all versions need to be relabelled as something else. I've suggested Zope A B, Zope Classic Zope Advanced, Zope Taz nothing... take your pick or suggest some more :-) Decide where the line is first, then worry about naming things later. The lines are pretty much there. We have Zope 2 the app server - long may it continue Zope 3 the app server - which no-one seems that fussed about The Zope Framework - which everyone (both of the above, repoze, grok, plone) cares about. All the other players were sensible enough to give themselves separate names in the first place (grok, repoze, plone, etc) After all new users don't know the name now, and existing users can cope with a cosmetic thing like a name change. Exactly. Let's work out if there is a problem. Then work out how to solve it. Then solve it. Let's not do it backwards. The only problem I was trying to address with this proposal was to clarify the naming and versioning of the various aspects of the Zope world. My views on what are sensible choices of app server or framework project are something completely different, I'd just like to have a clear vocabulary when arguing about them ;-) Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

How do I upgrade from Zope 2 to Zope 3? How about from 3.5 to 4? No, Martijn as Zope Framework coup-master has already decreed it The Zope Framework, and I strongly agree. Zope Framework 4.0 fees sane, and ZF4 makes a nice abbreviation. 2. Zope 3 The Application server moves over to zope.pipeline or similar, and gets a new name, and becomes one of the application servers that run on the Zope Framework. I propose the name Blue Bream (another name for the fish Zope). Version can be 1.0 or 4.0, no matter. Bream 4.0 would be fine with me for that, I don't think there seems to be anyone who really cares about it anymore though... 3. Grok moves over either to Zope.pipeline or repose.bfg as publisher in Grok 2. Grok is Grok, Repoze is Repoze, lets leave them be and let them choose their own names... 4. Zope 2 moves permanently over to a better publisher, possibly repoze,Zope2, or something based on zope.pipeline. We stick our heads into actually redoing the security with proxies, in a not necessarily completely backwards compatible way. This would be Zope 5, but the name is better as Zope Legacy Server. 5 or 4. It cannot be called Zope int(x) for any value of x for the reasons that cause the current confusion. I think Zope Legacy 4 is a bit mean, I think there's plenty more life in the project if people want there to be. That was why I suggested Zope Classic (hey, it worked for Coke when they had to bring back their original product because of a snafu on the supposed replacement!) Zope Classic 4, ZC4 work, but I know Andreas hates the former and the latter has an unfortunate class with Zope Corp :-( More suggestions please! How about Zope Standard? That would leave us with Zope Framework v 4.0 or something, and four servers running on Zope Framework. Zope Legacy Server 4/5 (with Plone 5 on top), Blue Bream, BFG and Grok. Actually, you'd have (using the names I personally like so far) Bream 4 on top of Framework 4 Standard 4(which would include Framework 4) Plone 4 on top of Standard 4 Repoze and Grok on top of Framework 4 The initial names would, of course, be free to move onto any base they like, but their names wouldn't get confused.

If I was using it, I would happily take it over, in the same way I've given my code over to other people to maintain. As for docs, an army of people continually volunteer on #zope to update the zope book. Given my other contributions to Zope society, there are people far better suited to writing technical documentation than I. I'm happy to be a knowledge resource for anyone wanting to update the existing book / write a new freely available document. -- Andrew Milton a...@theinternet.com.au ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
