Re: [Zope-dev] Common permissions (final bits of zope.app.security refactoring)
Hi, On Thu, 2009-03-12 at 15:32 +0100, Martijn Faassen wrote: Hey Dan, Thanks very much for this analysis and summary! My comments below. Dan Korostelev wrote: To be honest, I don't quite get the difference between zope.ManageSite and zope.ManageServices. Can someone clear this point for me? May be they should be merged somehow. I'm afraid I don't know either. If we want to merge them we'd need to do some analysis of places where they are used. For now, move them both over. Services used to be a concept of the Component Architecture. This might be a remnant permission. Is it actually used somewhere? If so, I guess that it's fine to fold that permission into zope.ManageSite. I will note that zope.app.applicationcontrol contains code that looks reusable, even though it is indeed a bit more application-like. Grok's grokui.admin uses it so it'd be interesting to extract this code into a library we can use. I also just discovered zope.app.applicationcontrol doesn't seem to declare its dependencies right - it appears to depend on zope.app.appsetup for instance while it doesn't actually declare it. Anyway, we can always move zope.ManageApplication into zope.app.applicationcontrol when we want to, so leave it in zope.app.security for now. ManageSite and ManageApplication differ in the sense that ManageSite very likely only applies locally (at a site) whereas the application is a global thing (the server that runs everything) that needs management (like shutting down the server) independent of giving someone the right to administer a site (or even the top-level site).

[Zope-dev] Please use launchpad bugtracking/blueprints more
Hi, so, we've been running with the steering group for a few weeks now and I'm losing track of things, because we're letting the mailing list do the job of an issue tracking system. (And the one document in SVN.) We need to start using Launchpads tracking mechanisms for issues, filing bugs or blueprints much earlier and much more often than having threads just sit around in the zope-dev archive and *maybe* get picked up. As the steering group is supposed to follow up on opened issues and remind and work on them, having to track that kind of status in my mailbox is cruel to me and breaks the development process as that data is inaccessible to others. After all: that's what issue tracking systems are for, please, let's use ours. Please note that I don't want to move discussions off the mailing list: I want to be able to track issues that people want to get solved using an appropriate tracking system. I can't follow every single email on zope-dev and having to review large threads that were solved already isn't good use of anybodies time.

Re: [Zope-dev] setting missing minimum version in setup.py
Hey, Wichert Akkerman wrote: [snip] This is an important point. As I see it the KGS is a Zope-only thing, and is just a workaround for the mindless behaviour of setuptools. I do not see it gaining acceptance outside of the Zope community, and imho effort is better spent on improving the packaging tools. KGS is two things: * KGS the software * KGS the concept KGS the concept will have a life outside of the Zope world. KGS the concept is very easy to implement; you just make available on some URL a buildout versions.cfg, or you run your own package index. I'll note that buildout seems to be clawing to a life outside of the Zope world; I know of several Django users that adopted it. It'd be much more popular if we had a good bunch of beginner level tutorials for it. Anyway, we've already decided to use setup.py dependencies for API compatibility.

Re: [Zope-dev] Please use launchpad bugtracking/blueprints more
Hey, I'm okay with using launchpad more, though I do think we shouldn't underestimate the power of a mailbox (I use gmane and a newsreader myself :) and a document with decisions recorded. People can simply bring up an issue again if it hasn't resolved itself, after all. I really don't want people to have to struggle through launchpad just to bring up an issue. Anyway, if the steering group wants launchpad to be used more, we'll have to get specific. Steering group members can do in two ways: * put issues in launchpad ourselves. * we suggest to people to put *particular* issues in launchpad during discussions here. This will work much better than general calls to use launchpad. :) One question is what launchpad project we should use. The current launchpad is for Zope 3. The steering group isn't about Zope 3. It's about a whole bunch of libraries. Creating a separate launchpad project for each library in the framework seems like a bit of overkill at this stage, though it would please those people who come at us at the perspective from libraries the most. For now, I propose we create a launchpad project zopeframework and file bugs there. If a particular component such as zope.component gets a lot of traffic by itself, we'll open up a project for that as well (and issues can be assigned to two projects). Christian, can you create a zopeframework project in launchpad? Let it be nice and empty so there's no past we have to worry about. Mining through the current Zope 3 issues is a project all by itself.

The current launchpad is for Zope 3. The steering group isn't about Zope 3. It's about a whole bunch of libraries. Creating a separate launchpad project for each library in the framework seems like a bit of overkill at this stage, though it would please those people who come at us at the perspective from libraries the most. It smells like 'Zope Framework' (zope-framework) should be a Project Group then, and there should be a 'Zope Steering Group Project' (zope-steering-group-project) as part of it, and sibling of Zope 3 and any other libraries that are part of Zope Framework. For an example of what this looks like, look at: Why would the steering group be a project as part of the Zope Framework? The steering group isn't a project? I'm all for setting something up, but I'm still not clear on what you'd set up. A Zope Framework project group with what inside? My take would be the following. It's probably contentious. - The current zope3 project is regarded as a project for the aggregation of the pieces into the old tgz and the old mgmt UI. This should be clarified on the project page. - There is a new Zope Framework (I would prefer Zope Libraries myself, but let's not start that again ;-) ) umbrella project, controlled by a new Zope Framework team. - There are multiple zope.* (and z3c.* and whatever) library projects. They are part of the umbrella project (if so desired by the pertinent parties). - The current zope3 project should be considered part of the Zope Framework *at least for now* because it has legacy information. If someone reassigns the bugs and blueprints and so on to the pertinent library projects (or to the Zope Framework), zope3 could no longer be part of the Zope Framework umbrella project, if desired. That's work, though, so I'd be inclined to see if it happens and meanwhile be happy to take the zope3 project in as legacy.

So that we will get all bugs and blueprints as part of 'zope-framework'. If 'zope-framework' is a project group containing 'zope3', you would already get that. See: The Zope Framework does not contain Zope 3. Zope 3, Zope 2 and Grok (will) use the Zope Framework. Other projects only use sub-projects of the Zope Framework.

Good analysis Gary, Though I would tend to see Zope3 as the umbrella and the various projects (components) under it. Is there REALLY too much bad press vs. good press about Zope3? I don't think so. I think inventing a new name ala, Zope Umbrella is a bad thing. Presenting Zope3 as the Zope Component Architecture is not a bad thing. But not consolidating on a specific brand *is* a bad thing. I believe that from an outsiders point of view; keeping the Zope3 moniker ties it to the legacy of Zope.org and Zope Corp. These are not bad things. Explaining that it is now a component architecture is a good thing. In my project, this received a very positive response from Python developers. They liked the ideas of Zope but hated the monolithic structure of Zope2.x I am not a Zope developer, have never contributed a single line of code. I have complained a lot, mostly because I misunderstood Zope. but I can tell you that as a user it is easy to see the power and functionality. Even if I do not yet know how to fully exploit it. Moving away from the name is bad for the FOSS product and bad for the company that started it all.
