Yeah, this is always unfortunate.


  The issues aren't so much technical feasibility as social / legal:  a
  checkin done using somebody's private key is way less deniable than one
  done with a password.  Unless you plan to set up a system for issuing
  client certificates to contributors, I don't think https is superior to
  svn+ssh at all.
 
 Hmmm, I'm tempted to call BS on this. How much of this has actually been 
 tested in a court? Really, all this crap gets caught up on pseudo legal 
 BS which ultimately just makes it more difficult for people to 
 contribute :-( I really don't get the whole paranoia about passwords 
 anyway... yes, client certs and public key are more secure, but 
 really, why are we setting the bar so high? It's not like we're dealing 
 with top secret national security stuff...

+1 on Chris' comments


 For trying to get people to help out, this sucks ass. Come on, we're an 
 open source project, we _want_ people to help out, not keep on pushing 
 them away with higher and higher bars :-(

+1 once more


For my own contribution I could really care less what protocols we use,
since Im in a situation where I can use whatever.

But out of the 20 or so public SVN repos i have write access to,
zope.org is the only one that requires this whole ssh thing (most do
writing over https, a few do writing over regular http).  Its certainly
not the norm.  I realize changing it at this point would probably be a
major pain for all existing contributors, but lowering the bar for new
contributors is definitely worth it IMHO.

Anyhow, just my 2 cents.

 To support WebDAV as widely as possible, I would prefer to
 get rid of all id restrictions. I do not like to see
 new restrictions emerging...

You just don't like it or do you know a better alternative?

We need a way to make sure that object IDs can't mask browser views and 
resources. The current solution in Zope 3 is to reserve names starting 
with '+' and '@' for resources and views.

_ is already disallowed at the beginning of an id.
Could you use it to mark views/ressources?

Compared to Zope 2.8.1 and earlier this is no new restriction.

In order to support WebDAV as widely as possible, I
have removed almost all id restrictions quite some time ago.
I hope that this will happen in the official Zope as well.
The current state of affairs is not really justified.

Re: [ZWeb] Zope 3 Website

2006-03-11 Thread Peter Simmons
Those are the type of people that ideas but need us to implement them to 
make them real. Those ideas and having them implemented means more work 
for us in the community and that means more bright people in the community.


Just my experience.

Like the idea of balance also. What I was thinking wasn't really aimed 
from a pure selling point of view more getting back to grass roots 
websites though. The home page should provide a clear message about what 
the site is all about. That means a clear message about what zope 3 is 
all about.


The reason it should appeal to newcomers in particular is because they 
are less likely to go further if then do not understand what the 
benefits are. Anyone already in the community is likely to be able to 
bookmark their ideal landing page whether it be news, new products, 
mailing list archives or whatever they like to use to keep abreast.


There is a balance to be struck of course as we are not about hype but a 
clear consistent, concise message goes a long way.


Think of it as a backing up of the community, when we try to convince 
someone they should use zope we can point them at the site to find out 
why we are so evangelistic about it.


Anyway sounds like you guys are all on the right track so don't take 
this as a disagreement :-)


cheers,
Pete

[Zope] Ape

2006-03-11 Thread Dennis Allison

I am looking to map a portion of the local file system into Zope.  One way 
to do this is to use LocalFS, another is to use Ape.  I am sure there are 
onter approaches as well.  We are using Zop 2.9.X.  Will Ape work in this 
context?  What would you suggest?

Ape doesn't work with Zope 2.9 yet.

Dan,

I use Zettai.  Can't complain at all.   Even though I use virtual host 
plan (I share a server with about 8(?) others) the performance is better 
than I feared might be the case. 

The best of all worlds is to at least co-host your server.  But thats 
more over-head for the developer.  Zettai support is excellent. 
(although they do get cranky if you lean too much on them).


I just checked out the iMeme site - and they may be pretty good ( jcc 
wouldn't recommend them otherwise) but their presentation is gawd-awful 
and not confidence inspiring.

[Zope] nested records

submission does not extend to nesting such things?  If I have a form

input name=item.subitem.subsubitem:record

element named 'subitem' that is itself a record containing an element
named 'subsubitem'.  This doesn't seem to happen.  Is this supposed to
work and I'm making some other mistake, or is this not part of the

If you need a place to stick a server then I highly recommend bayMountain. Amazing service and support. A great team of open source and Zope experts there.

Nested records are not supported and this is a very uncommon usecase.
