Ok. This only vaguely begins to address your issues, but I went ahead and added searching Zope.org with Google to the "search" page- the one you get for clicking on the "search" link at the top of the page.

Also, I am extending an open offer to anyone who has a zope-related mailing list to have it hosted at zope.org. I would specifically like to see the zope-language mailing lists come to zope- zope-de, zope-pt, and it looks like we may add zope-it. You're under no obligation to do so, but the offer is there.

Re: [Zope] ANN: Perl For Zope
Zopistas, This argument is all very funny. Why is it bad to be able to answer someone when they say "i use this perl script on my site, I want to use it in zope"? I would personally like this for little regexp programs. What matters is that 90% of the old-school web sites use perl as their glue, and they shouldn't have to have their sites fall apart when transitioning to zope. If it helps any, it should be obvious by now that zope is from the emacs school and not the vi school. Zope's problem domain is simply too wide to be addressed by anything but an all-inclusive approach. To me, perl is small beans, but XSLT... that sets me drooling. All sorts of other methods are fine by me, too. I highly doubt that the core codebase of Zope is going to ever be anything other than C and python, unless some other compiled language comes along that's even better & more portable than C or some lunatic decides that zope should work in jpython. ethan mindlace fremen Zopista Community Liason ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Well... I think that it's probably the shortest route to a functioning zope archive to use mailman- already written in python, and modular enough that we should be able to take it one step at a time.

If a method is availiable in perl, so what? I mean, all of these "Methods" are going to have to talk the same way to the zope machinery. If you want to leave a Perl Method as a black box, then nothing should stop you. The very nature of Methods means that no-one is going to write PerlOffice in a single method. If someone has a substantial investment in Perl, and they want to keep that as an External Method in order transition to Zope, then they should be able to. It has been a barrier to the adoption of Zope more than once, I would imagine. One of the big stumbling blocks for me, in my adoption of zope, is that it "forced" me to do it with python or not at all. > Perhaps this is a disadvantage to the DC company-owned open-source > project model.

ZOPE means "The Z Object Publishing System". publishing Perl methods as objects is just as valid as publishing any other kind of object. It is an open source project, with all the benifits thereof. If you really feel that it needs to be "OPOPS", the Only Python Object Publishing System, and that any non-python object is anathema, go right ahead. > I don't buy this bit about being able to access 1000's of wonderful > perl modules.

Today you're taking one of the logical consequences in the development of an object publishing system and turning it into something that it's really not.

The problem is slightly more complicated than this: We have Apache cache file and image objects. This is a good thing, because they are static, and Apache will *always* be better than Zope at serving static content. This is a bad thing, because direct requests for files don't ever make it to Zope. Nonetheless, this doesn't affect the /view method. Further, we now have the feature that the listing of products shows the latest version, no /view method in the middle, for your direct download. I may be able to do some parsing of the apache log files for those things that end in tgz, tar.gz , and zip. This would be somewhat canonical, except for the fact that because we have cache headers set on the file objects, they are cached downstream, and so many requests for cache objects will never make it to our Apache at all. ~ethan p.s.

An imap server stores the messages that have been recieved. An MTA (Mail Transport Agent) goes about sending mail from one place to another. If there were an IMAP server in zope, you could "recieve" the mail as an object in zope, but it would still be delivered to zope by an MTA. > Archiving mailing lists shouldn't be a big issue since there are already > Zope mailing list archives that are searchable in ways currently more > powerful than ZCatalog has to offer.

[Zope] Perl Methods: Chat with Jim and Paul
Zopistas, The IRC chat with Jim and Paul went well, with over 40 zopistas in attendance. The topic was (mostly) Perl Methods and Methods in general for the first half an hour, and the second half was open chat. A *condensed* and paraphrased synopsis is availiable at: http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Chats/pl_chat Hugo Ramos (aka Silver-Surfer) has done a wonderful log of the chat at: http://www.zopers.org/principal/ver_principal/index_html?idx=4 A big thanks to all the zopistas that participated!

[Zope] The Zope Weekly News
will be updated accordingly. o Some basic hooks to support virtual hosting (a la SiteAccess) have been designed and will be added to allow product authors to write virtual hosting support without fragile dependencies on parts of the Zope core. o Finish changes to the undo machinery that will expose a more appropriate subset of undo-able transactions to the user. The set exposed now was fine at one time, but as the line between "site management" and "site user" continues to blur, a more restricted subset will make undo easier to delegate to a broader range of users. o Get the minimal Observable default implemention checked in to the Zope core. Note that for 2.2 at least, the only impact of this will be that ZClasses will be able to subclass the default Observable implementation. While we suspect that many builtin Zope objects could benefit from being Observable in the longer run, we want to let the interface and default implementation shake out in application usage before taking that step. o Some misc. catalog bugs need to be closed.

[Zope] Zope Weekly News for June 7th
This week's somewhat abbreviated ZWN includes Zope at LinuxTag and the Open Source Convention, lots of documentation progress, including a chat, a new home for Zope Studio and more! The opinions expressed in Zope Weekly news are solely the author's, and not the opinions of Digital Creations, The Zope Community at-large, or the Spanish Inquisition. The Zope Weekly News now has a "permanent home", http://www.zope.org/Documentation/ZWN. And Now For Something Completely Different: Coming Events LinuxTag There will be a Zope booth at the "LinuxTag", http://www.linuxtag.de in Stuttgart, Germany from June 29th to July 2nd. In addition to the booth that will be there for the whole conference, there will be 2 rooms available for talks and discussions on the business day, Thursday 29th. We are still looking for people who want help organizing the conference, give some talks and attend the booth. Generally, it would also be great to know who is planning to be at the conference. Please send feedback to "Stephan Richter", mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] See "Zope at Linuxtag", http://www.zope.org/Members/Linuxtag/ for the most up-to-date information. The Open Source Convention This "enormous convention", http://conferences.oreilly.com/oscon2000/ hosted by O'reilly, is shaping up to be pretty interesting. Aside from the State of Python, given by Guido von Rossum, there's also going to be a "talk on the CERT Advisory", http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/w/evening_events.html about cross-site scripting, a web-wide security issue that the Zope Community was among the first to begin implementing security policies for: they'll land with zope 2.2. Zope is going to be at the conference in force, with: - Paul "opening eyes to the Zope-Mozilla initiative", http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/e_sess/853 - Ryan telling the world "you can have web IMAP and collaboration", http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/e_sess/725 - Christopher, as always, concentrating on the "edification of the community", http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/w/python_tutorials.html Documentation -- by Amos Lattier This Week * Stephan Richter finished reviewing, fixing, and expanding online help content for the Zope management screens. We hope to get him set up with CVS and get this checked in later this week or next week. In addition to brining the help content up to date, he is converting it to use Structured-Text. This will make editing help pages much easier and will eliminate the two step process of editing XML, rendering to HTML and then checking the HTML into CVS. This should make life much easier for the Zope team when they are documenting their work. * Amos released updated "Zope training material", http://www.zope.org/Members/Amos/TrainingSlidesAnnounce that he and Michel Pelletier have been working on for the past couple weeks. There are twenty slide presentations which cover such topics as DTML, application design, and developing Python products. Note: the PowerPoint slides are built by a Python script that reads Structured Text and talks to PowerPoint over COM - cool. * Michel and Amos participated in an IRC chat about documentation. A transcript of the chat "is availiable", http://www.zope.org/Documentation/Chats Thanks to everyone who participated and posed great questions. We even got a volunteer commitment out of the chat - way to go ZDP folks! * Amos is putting together a wiki that details all official Zope documentation projects, their schedules and status. Look for an announcement before the end of the week. We hope that this along with weekly ZWN summaries will give folks a much better idea of what were doing on the documentation front. * Michel is working on turning his in progress O'Reilly book on Zope into a piece of official Zope documentation. If all goes well the book will replace the current Guides. We are really excited about this and think that if we are successful that this will do a tremendous amount for Zope documentation. Next Week * We plan to complete and make public the Wiki that describes all official Zope documentation projects, their schedules and status. * We plan to focus on getting docs in shape for Zope 2.2 Specifically this means shoring up the help system docs, API docs, and tutorial. This all won't get done next week, but hopefully we can make some good progress and stay on track to have everything up to date for the 2.2 final release. If we are really fast we may even sneak a DTML reference into the Zope 2.2 final release. * Hopefully we will have final word on the status of converting Michel's Book into official documentation. That means we can start the process of making the Book public and opening it up to community critique and

Yes, it does mean the root directory of your zope folder. When you create a new folder, it has two checkboxes. one of them asks whether you want to create a public interface: This is index_html.

[Zope] Zope Weekly News June 14th
LinuxTag, the Open Source Conference, Launch of Zope 2.2.0b1, a Docs Wiki and much Documentation work, PTK gains steam, Guido's time machine stolen, Improved Products page and more! The opinions expressed in Zope Weekly news are solely the authors', and not the opinions of Digital Creations, The Zope Community at-large, or the Spanish Inquisition. The Zope Weekly News now has a "permanent home", http://www.zope.org/Documentation/ZWN. And Now For Something Completely Different: Coming Events LinuxTag There will be a Zope booth at the "LinuxTag", http://www.linuxtag.de in Stuttgart, Germany from June 29th to July 2nd. In addition to the booth that will be there for the whole conference, there will be 2 rooms available for talks and discussions on the business day, Thursday 29th. There will not be an additional charge for the two rooms on buisness day. We are still looking for people who want help organizing the conference, give some talks and attend the booth. Generally, it would also be great to know who is planning to be at the conference. Please send feedback to "Stephan Richter", mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] See "Zope at Linuxtag", http://www.zope.org/Members/Linuxtag/ for the most up-to-date information. The Open Source Convention This "enormous convention", http://conferences.oreilly.com/oscon2000/ hosted by O'reilly, is shaping up to be pretty interesting. Aside from the State of Python, given by Guido von Rossum, there's also going to be a "talk on the CERT Advisory", http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/w/evening_events.html about cross-site scripting, a web-wide security issue that the Zope Community was among the first to begin implementing security policies for: they'll land with zope 2.2. Zope is going to be at the conference in force, with: - Paul "opening eyes to the Zope-Mozilla initiative", http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/e_sess/853 - Ryan telling the world "you can have web IMAP and collaboration", http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/e_sess/725 - Christopher, as always, concentrating on the "edification of the community", http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/w/python_tutorials.html Documentation -- by Amos Lattier This Week * We've released the Docs Wiki http://www.zope.org/Wikis/Docs This is your source for information on official Zope documentation. You can find out about all our projects including their status and timelines. You can also see what Amos, Michel and Stephan are doing each week. Plus, since it's a wiki you can add your comments. * The bulk of this week's work will be spent trying to get the online docs ship shape for Zope 2.2 final. Mike is finishing up the API docs, Amos is working on the help system framework and tutorial and Stephan is working on the management help content. * Mike is working with O'Reilly this week to clarify the status of his book. If all goes well we should have a definitive answer on making it official Zope documentation by the end of the week. Next Week * Next week will be spent finishing any bits that need finalizing for Zope 2.2 that we don't finish this week. * Hopefully next week we can begin making Mike's book public. Zope Status -- by Brian Lloyd Summary We finally beat the todo list and got the 2.2 beta 1 release "out the door", http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.2.0b1 (and there was much rejoicing!). Last week highlights 7 more collector issues were closed last week, and the remaining items on the todo list for 2.2 beta 1 were knocked out. The needed hooks for non-invasive virtual hosting support were added, as well as better Undo handling, several catalog fixes and some long overdue fixes to the way that HTTP HEAD requests are handled that should make Zope more friendly to various spidering tools. This week's good-buddies-of-the-core: o Chris Withers and others for forcing some action on the HEAD issue o Toby Dickenson and Butch Landingin contributed fixes for ZCatalog o taz sent a patch to un-screw what I screwed up last time I worked on MailHost :^) Next week Next week we'll be absorbing feedback on the beta release and planning for final. More importantly, work will begin in earnest on the "opening the development process" initiative. I hope to get a basic "Zope core development"- focused area set up, publish the draft Zope roadmap for comment and start working out some post-2.2 plans.

Hmm. superuser can't manage the folders? They should be able to. I assume you mean by "almost works" it doesn't let you manage? First, you can always disable siteaccess by using __no_before_traverse__ as the first item in the path. Second, once you set this up, you cannot manage the folder except from it's url ( host1.penguinpowered.com/manage should work) These are kind of stabs in the dark. If you could show me some urls that don't work, then maybe I can do some more.

I use a dtml_method for this, actually. I don't know how to do it with an external method (or why you would want to).

Copy your Data.fs from the var directory of the old zope into the new one. Remember that you need to have the right products installed. 2. Switch to INSTANCE_HOME usage, as explicated by Evan: http://www.zope.org/Members/4am/instancehome I add the steps of symlinking the software folder to something like zope_soft. This has the advantage that any further releases of zope, to upgrade you simply unpack and compile zope, then link it's folder to zope_soft, restart zope, and (more-or-less) viola! things work. -- ethan mindlace fremen Zopatista Community Liason Abnegate I! ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )

Did you just copy the Data.fs ? If so, your old zope had a Data.fs.index that greatly speeds the startup of zope.

The way I would do this is have section1.contrived-example.com section2.contrived-example.com section3.contrived-example.com with siteAccess, and then each zope would serve it according to it's IP (though each "could" serve each site).

It depends on where the exchange rates are. If you get them from a database, you can make zope display the current rates. If you get them from a web page, you can use the client feature of zope to go snarf the web page and then extract what you need (hope you have permission :) If some other mechanism can write them to a file, you can suck them up with an external method whenever someone asks for it. hope that helps, -- ethan mindlace fremen Zopatista Community Liason Abnegate I! ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
