See Fred's response. Note that an alternative, in the short term is to create a buildout that either includes or uses an existing Zope 3 installation. This will allow the existing functional alyer to be used. It requires specifying the Zope 3 src directory in the extra-paths option of the testrunner section. To eggify zope.app.* packages we should implement this proposal ? : http://wiki.zope.org/zope3/LoadingConfigurationFromTheZopeAppEgg Yes. I have implemented this in my checkout with an ugly hack and tried to eggify one package, can anyone review this ? ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/zissue/z3/zope.app.container.tar.bz2 I don't have time to look at this atm. Where do we place zope.app.* individual packages in subversion? If we are placing it in toplevel (under main) there will be about 90+ packages. What about creating a 'zope.app' directory in toplevel and put all zope.app.* packages there ? This is a good question. Several months ago, the same questions was raised wrt Zope 2 Products, which are mostly in the Products package. At the time, we decided to stick with top-level projects because: - That was the subversion standard practice, and - Shallow is better than deep, in general. I wonder, however, if that was the best decision. The list of projects at: http://svn.zope.org/ Is already rather long and unweildy, It is likely to get worse. The fact that most things begin with z makes it even harder to scan. :) Personally, I wouldn't object to organizing things by namespace packages. Of course, zope.app is an odd case because there will be both a zope.app namespace package and a project that we'd be tempted to name zope.app. Jim -- Jim Fulton mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Python Powered!

Any package that needs to register anything beyond this basic ZopeAppServerLayer will need to define a new layer. Running the tests like that can take time, since the layers take time to build, but isolating the components is worth while, since it makes it easier to re-combine components in different ways, so the only tests that are needed for the integration are those that test the integration itself.

What about creating a 'zope.app' directory in toplevel and put all zope.app.* packages there ? I see no reason to introduce a new convention at this point; there's already a long list of packages at the top level, several more won't make it less convenient. -Fred -- Fred L.
