 I believe after Zope2, acquisition was determined to be more of a liability
 than a feature, as such, it doesn't exist in Zope3. TTW skin development is
 not supported at this time and has moved to the filesystem. From the
 filesystem with a little zcml you can create much richer and easier to
 follow behavior.

I'll add that some of the WebDev work we did this week will allow simple skin 
development via the Web. But other than that development, you have to know 
some minimal programming. Now that the Plone community is interested in Zope 
3 , we will have to do more for the designer, so I expect improvements will 
come in the next releases.

I am pretty sure that the Decimal type is not declared a rock in the security 
package and is thus proxied. Bring it up in the zope3-dev mailing list and it 
will be addressed quickly. For now you can just declare it as a rock. See 
zope.security.

Re: [Zope3-Users] Come posso utilizzare SQLExpr con Five?

SQLExpr is not distributed with Zope 3.2 and thus 2.9 at this point. You have 
to download it yourself from SVN and install the meta hook. 

 ConfigurationError: ('Unknown directive', 
u'http://namespaces.zope.org/tales', u'expressiontype')

I am surprised to see this error. It seems that Five does not hook up the 
zope.app.pagetemplate/meta.zcml file, which contains the declaration of this 
directive.

[Zope3-Users] Selecting a code name

  well, how about Zope3, Reloaded for all the matrix fans out there? :)

 The idea of release code names adds a little spice.  Most people like
 spices on their food, so why not on their software too?  But the naming
 scheme really has to be based on the Tarzan series.  Jim's a Tarzan fan.

Okay, I am giving in on this. There is a three step process that will have to 
be fullfilled to assign a codename to the Zope 3.3 release.

1. Write a proposal that justifies the use of a codename. Announce it on 
zope3-dev asking for votes.

2. Ask for codename and.or codename scheme suggestions on this and the 
zope3-dev mailing list. Have the community vote on the suggestions.

3. Give me guidance on how to include and promote the codename when I make the 
releases.

Stephan

 I agree. Apple was able to get the message out that Mac OS X = Mac OS
 10 = A totally different architecture than Mac OS {6,7,8,9}. Inside
 of Mac OS X, Apple has turned their code names into release/brand
 names like Jaguar and Tiger, but as a long time Mac OS X user -
 whenever those names come up in discussion (when did this feature show
 up? I remember upgrading to ..., etc), there's always the wait, don't
 you mean Panther? no, I mean Jaguar. Wait. Which one was 10.3?

This is an excellent point!

[Zope3-Users] Sqlalchemy and Zope3?

2006-02-05 Thread Wade Leftwich
Is anybody using Sqlalchemy (http://www.sqlalchemy.org/) with Z3? If so,
any tips /examples to share?

I'm building a semi-complicated MySQL database using sqlalchemy for a
non-web application. Now, halfway through, we're saying You know, a web
interface would really be nice here ... surprise!

Any advice or useful links on Z3 with sqlalchemy in particular or rdb
integration in general will be much appreciated.

[Zope3-Users] Best way to add a Principal to PAU

2006-02-05 Thread Florian Lindner
Hello,
I've managed to add a principal to a principal folder inside a PAU:

  pau = getUtility(IAuthentication)
  pfolder = pau.keys()[0]
  principal = InternalPrincipal(def, pwd123,a title, a description)
  pfolder[def] = principal

but I doubt that the most elegant way. How can I achieve do it more or less 
agnostic form the principal source (or a least from the name and ordinal 
postion inside PAU)?

Thanks,

Florian

[Zope3-Users] Minor Doc Bug

2006-02-05 Thread Paul Dumais
I'm quite new to zope and python, I would like to submit a minor
documentation bug. The zope/app/demo/hellopackage/README.txt mentions
the products.zcml which is now depreciated. I assume it should mention
a different zcml file (or none since it seems to be
installed/available for use by default).

Should I bother with svn commit access, should I submit it anonymously
or register via the Zope3 issue tracker, or should I just mention it
here?

Should I do something else?

I hope to be able to continue to be picky so that other newbies won't
waste time looking at erroneous info.

Thanks!

Basically, your application should know the location of the Authentication 
Utility and the name of the principal folder. Also note that the principal 
class is principal folder specific.

[Zope3-Users] Example Apps for Newbies

2006-02-05 Thread Paul Dumais
I was wondering about good example apps for newbies.
I have a possible list:

These are in the trunk Zope3 svn checkout:
   - buddy folder
   - Bug Tracker
   - Demo Widgets
   - Hello World
   - Wiki

This one might be good to install:
   - http://opensource.amazesolutions.com/projects/zope3/cubic

Should any of these be removed? Should any be added?

Thanks!

Thanks for the encouragement. I don't know how much I can get
done in a four day sprint but I'm willing to give it a go.

By new website, do you mean a Zope 3 advocacy site, or a general
documentation site? Making a separate site for advocacy seems like
a no-brainer (ala Pythonology.org), but the documentation site is
another matter. Have the Zope 3 core developers decided to split
Zope 3 documentation onto a completely separate site? Maybe this
has already been discussed on the Zope3-dev list, which I haven't
yet looked at.
