Hi Hanno and framework team members,

just a quick question in passing: looking at plip 148
(move to CMF 2.1) I noticed that Plone has a hard
dependency on PIL there at the moment.  Moving
'scale_image' into CMFPlone/utils.py resulted in
an unconditioned

 from PIL import Image

which of course fails if PIL isn't installed.

Up to now we have PIL as a soft dependency in Plone/AT
so the question is whether this change is intended or just
an oversite.

As PIL isn't part of a standard Python distribution I personally
would prefer to keep this a soft dependency.

Comments anyone?

Raphael
