[Zope] ZClasses deprecation and upgrades

2008-08-11 Thread Behrens Matt - Grand Rapids
I am wondering about is the nature of the problems with ZClasses that led to their deprecation. If I move a 2.5.1 installation to 2.11, are my several existing ZClass-based products going to break in any known way I should be aware of? Should I consider a last-known-good upgrade target instead?

[Zope-dev] product distribution compliance

I have a patch in hand that addresses MOST of the issues I brought up, but the biggie (tricking root into killing arbitrary processes) is a hard one to solve. I have many options, and I'd like opinions... Right now, the pid file is written out by the user that ZServer drops to after
