I do not argue with you that Zope3 is "different software than Zope 2".

What I argue about is "Zope 2 is an application".
I have seen hundreds of applications built on top of Zope 2, long
before someone thought about Zope 3. I interpret this as:
"Zope 2 is not an application but a web application framework".

Recently some applications make not only use of Zope 2
but also of Zope 3 (prominent example is Plone 3).
But Zope 2 itself is still only slightly dependent on Zope 3.

Again, these lists are about the development of, not development with.
There are indeed some people developing only Zope3 but not involved in
Zope2. I don't think they are very many. There are none involved in
Zope 2 that are not involved in Zope 3.

It's not unstated, although admittedly, it is in my opinion off topic
for the discussion.

Hi Dieter. Zope 2 is one application among many dependent upon zope 3. 
Zope 3 is different software than zope 2. It has a community of pure 
zope 3 developers (that I don't believe the suggestion of folding the 
lists together adequately considers).


Folks have been developing and collaborating on zope2 five and zope 3 
all along with success. More so, I get the impression that the unstated 
goal here is to assimilate zope 3 into a different notion of 'zope' that 
would further obfuscate it as a framework (under the influence of 
zope2). Zope 3 stands on its own as a framework and I sure hope I am 
wrong about how I have been interpreting the dialog.


If the objective is simply working together and staying better informed, 
it does not require a merged list to accomplish this. The objective of 
the zope3-dev list is to serve the development interests of zope3. Folks 
with input or who wish to monitor this should subscribe to the list.


Regards,
David

Maybe, but then Zope 2 is an application with variants that are
not recognizable as variants of the same application ;-)

We don't need to start a discussion about the architecture. 


Apparently we do as since we are talking about zope 3's development 
forum. This is where discussions and decisions for zope 3 occur and I 
don't want this necessarily combined and heavily influenced by zope 2 
development. Zope 2 is a single application that depends on zope 3.

Both
versions have a different history and a different architecture but they 
serve basically the same purpose: building web apps in the first place.


Certainly the same can be said for all other applications with a 
dependency on zope 3. I would not expect these lists to be folded into 
zope3-dev or vice versa. Folks with an interest will simply subscribe to 
the lists they wish to monitor.



And both versions play nicely together. I assume there are currently
much more Zope 2 developers or Zope 2 developers also developing with 
Zope 3 than pure Zope 3 developers...so it is basically having the pure 
Zope 3 developers together with all other Zope developers. It would be 
dangerous

to split up both parties.


I'm not sure where you are going with this but it is disconcerting when 
you start pointing to how many folks are doing this or doing that. 
Because there are more zope 2 developers is also the reason I that folks 
that perpetuate thought and progress on the zope 3 ought to be able to 
do it without the dominating influence of any dependent project. You 
seem to make the assumption that pure zope 3 developers would want or 
welcome this influence. I see this threatening and analogous to inviting 
lobbyists in government to govern the country.


Zope 3 technologies are being used in zope 2 and things being learned 
and they play well together. Ok, that is good. Surely there can be 
dialog with zope 2 development without consuming the communication 
channels and project structures of zope 3.


I think if the tables were turned you could see the point I am making 
more clearly. You wouldn't want someone saying look "We are bigger than 
you and we're moving in. By the way were merging our development lists 
we are planning on assuming your identity also. We're now all now just 
"zope".


 Zope 2 developers need to know what's going on
in Zope 3 _and_ vis-versa. The initial argument about more email traffic 
on a common list is only a spurious argument. Both -dev lists mostly 
contain posting with reasonable subjectsscanning some more mails per 
day really is not an issue. I am also subscribed to the zope3-dev list 
and I am not reading everything but at least watching the list gives me 
an impression

about current discussions and current issues that might be of interest
for the Zope 2 world.


Yes, subscribing to the list would be appropriate but merging the lists 
is what we are talking about. The arguments you use here give me the 
impression that zope 3 is in jeopardy of being hijacked for use within 
zope 2 and rebranded 'zope'. This is not something I wish to consider 
and would sooner see zope 3 fork than see zope 3 incrementally consumed 
like this.

Now you are being silly. :-) He was writing a text about how small the

No, he explicitly says that Plone 3.0 has a heavy use of Zope 3
components. That is not an "implication".

Nobody in the plone world is taking about Plone 3 developers and Plone
2 developers.

What renaming is he lobbying for? This is not about renaming anything.

I think this discussion would be more constructive if you put more of

Sure, but this is the lists for development *of* not development

Zope 3-technologies into Zope2 :-)

The zope (for usage and development with Zope2) and zope3-users (which
is development with Zope3) should not be merged, I totally agree with
that.

following without prejudice to any application that depends upon zope 3.

as the app. It is self contained and it is able to absorb zope 3 
packages and technologies. I see plone as an application layer build on 
top of the zope 2 application.


The fact that zope 3 is not specifically an  application, nor a 
traditional framework is also what can make it difficult for folks to 
distinguish zope 3 as something special. You only understand this once 
you are able to see it for what it is. To the uninitiated it may just 
seem a library of packages (and well, that's missing the point :-)) When 
one looks at the collection of software that makes up the python 
language, they see an elegant way to create. Zope 3 is like this and you 
are free to create anything you wish.


Folks looking for containment within a framework will look for 
traditional solutions that confine their development within a container 
with strict rules and one way to do it all. This has strong points but 
the least of those is flexibility and diversity. Think if our creator 
had thought of only one way to create an animal and the possibilities 
and opportunities lost to create all the diversity we see on our planet.


I've developed in zope2 and recognize and respect it as a powerful web 
platform that answers specific solutions. For me, considerable 
flexibility was lost when you are not programming as a python programmer 
and programming for the api of the application.


I have always wanted what zope 3 provides. I do not want to see it given 
any other ground or see the development of zope 3 pushed or pulled by 
interests that best serve one application or another. Zope 2, Plone 3, 
SchoolTool, Grok, Bebop, and many commercial interests and projects 
including those by Lovely and others are beginning to show how diverse 
Zope 3 can be (and all have an interest in the development of zope 3). I 
should say this diversity extends to desktop applications as well as the 
web.


Personally, I see zope 2 and 3 as distinctly different. The development 
is different and the goals are different. Collaboration is always a good 
idea but in the same way that any programmer depending upon zope 3 
packages will want to maintain an interest in zope 3 development.


I also see zope 2 developers in the same context as other application 
developers that utilize zope3 in their efforts.  Collaboration can occur 
freely without merging the specific development lists or interests of 
grok-dev, zope-dev, plone and other application development (that would 
have simililar interests) in the development list of zope 3.


I don't see "zope" as a synonym for zope 2 and zope 3 either, any more 
that I could see it as a synonym for SchoolTool and zope3 or Grok and 
zope 3 (though obviously all a part of the zope community with a special 
interest in zope 3). Common ground and unified forums for the community 
is a different interest than merging development lists for the software. 
zope 2 and zope 3 share the same name but it my opinion calling it all 
"zope" is really a bad idea and perpetuates a problem.


Given the way history has unfolded, i'd have rather seen zope 3 given a 
new name, and have had an opportunity to have dissociated itself from 
zope 2 in a clear way without the premise or goal of trying to fold zope 
2 'the application" and zope 3 "the framework without a frame" together. 
It is alright (and frankly realistic) to suggest we have two software 
lines here that are very different. Personally, I don't see these ever 
being the same and future 'marketing' efforts should respect this if 
marketing is a concern.


The notion of the zope 3 application is fading as it should with the 
developments of the last year. I wouldn't want to see zope 3 revert to 
something or extend parts that have it looking like the zope 2 of four 
years ago for the sake of unifying the developer community under a 
generic "zope" flag. In any case, long message, but I hope this 
clarifies my view on this.

David

Marketing  'Zope' to new people is one point. Doing "internal marketing" 
for Zope is another big problem. By "internal marketing" I mean the 
following: my major customer is one of biggest Zope 2 users in Germany. We 
use Zope in various large scale installations for internal apps, for 
portals, shops and have more 100K Zope 2 installations running on Windows
Desktops alone in Germany. I am trying to promote Zope 3 technology since 
years within our big development department. And it always comes to 
discussions and misunderstandings as soon the terms Zope 2 and Zope 3 pop up
(...is it compatible?...how can we integrate it with current apps?..and so 
on). It's not about degrading Zope 3 to whatever...it's basically about 
names and the reception of the term 'Zope'.  Accidentally Jim brought up

the same point within his posting today about what Zope 3 stands for. Zope 3
right now is both an application server and a set of components. Let's call
the component part 'Zope components' and the app server part 'Bob'.

How Grok? Grok does not compete with Zope app server since it has complete 
different name. We can tell the people "Grok is a framework for building 
webapps on top of Zope technology which implicit configuration etc...".
With Zope 2 and Zope 3 we have always the problem answering "can I run my 
Zope 2 XXX software with Zope 3"...that's why we need a clear idea about 
what 'Zope ' means. You're right.this is about marketing - both to Zope 
developers and non-Zope developers...but a clear and consistent marketing 
is absolutely necessary since we compete with other frameworks. Zope is no 
longer the top dog within the world of Python frameworks.

I personally feel quiet offended to see Zope 3 degraded to a set of 
components. Zope 3 in itself is also an application server; Zope 2, on the

I have not been involved in this discussion. Having discussions like this 
during a conference is good as a starting point, but should never be seen as 
a canonical decision.

Please don't build a wall between Zope 2 and Zope 3

development also with Zope 3 components and Zope 3
techniques. Look at Plone 3.0 and its heavy usage of Zope 3
techniques...impressing. The Zope 3 development paradigms are
highly accepted by most Zope 2 core developers...we are all
sitting in the same boat. There is a fundamental difference
in the Zope 2 and Zope 3 architecture but little difference
between the paradigms how we should design and write software
on top of the Zope platform in the future.

The distinction between Zope 2 and Zope 3 must disappear. We
must speak of "Zope". Everything else is counterproductive
when it comes to promoting Zope. There is only one Zope
developer community and most of us have a Zope

artificial separation between Zope 2 and Zope 3 developers is

You are using 7 times the term "Zope2" and 9 times "Zope 3"
and also "Plone 3.0" in this small text. Can you try to describe

s/Zope 2/Zope application server
s/Zope 3/Zope components






I really don't care about how it is called, but I'm sure we
need some naming convention and since we have one, I don't see
any reason to change this.


As said: there was a big discussion on the terms "Zope 2" and
"Zope 3" during the last DZUG conference. Bringing it to the point:
the terms "zope 2" and "zope 3" should die. There's only 'Zope'.



You also use the term "Plone 3.0" which you implie that we
know that you mean the Plone which uses Zope 3 components ?




You are respecting the postifx 3.0 in the Plone world but
not for Zope? why?


Plone is an application but not a framework. Plone does not have
an identify crisis as Zope.




I'm a little confused and don't understand why you are lobbing
for such a renaming and at the same time you are using this
terms so heavy.


Why? There are much, much more applications deployed on top of the Zope 
application server than on top of the Zope component architecture. There is 
a huge installation of Plone site on top of the Zope app server and now the 
Zope component framework. Although you are a Zope component-only  developer 
you can not ignore the dependent applications and framework. The Zope 
application server core team is always in communication with the CMF and 
Plone teams (we play nicely together (mostly)) and I do expect the same
within the Zope world. The merging of the lists is just one multiple steps 
for bringing the two side together.

You are using 7 times the term "Zope2" and 9 times "Zope 3"
and also "Plone 3.0" in this small text. Can you try to describe 
this without "2 or 3" in "Zope *"? I guess not, right?

I really don't care about how it is called, but I'm sure we
need some naming convention and since we have one, I don't see
any reason to change this.

You also use the term "Plone 3.0" which you implie that we
know that you mean the Plone which uses Zope 3 components.

You are respecting the postifx 3.0 in the Plone world but 
not for Zope? why?

I'm a little confused and don't understand why you are lobbing 
for such a renaming and at the same time you are using this 
terms so heavy.

What do you man by "two development paradigms"?

Please don't build a wall between Zope 2 and Zope 3 developers. Most 
"old-school" Zope 2 developers are doing development also with Zope 3 
components and Zope 3 techniques. Look at Plone 3.0 and its heavy usage of

accepted by most Zope 2 core developers...we are all sitting in the same 
boat. There is a fundamental difference in the Zope 2 and Zope 3 
architecture but little difference between the paradigms how we should 
design and write software on top of the Zope platform in the future.


The distinction between Zope 2 and Zope 3 must disappear. We must speak of

Any objections?

This would basically involve retiring the zope3-dev list and moving
zope3 developers to the zope-dev list.

Not that I'm not interested in what's going on in Zope 2,
but the two list let me easy separate this two different 
topics. And it will allow me to read the Zope2 mails in 
digest mode if I don't have time to read all.


Another reason for not to switch is the mailinglist observation
in the different web apps out there. They are very usefull.

btw,
a cool app, this is another reason to keep the

The confusion for people with the terms and Zope 2 and Zope 3 was
one of major topics of the last german Zope conference. And there
were also talks between the DZUG and the ZF on this topic and there
was agreement that we should speak of "the zope application" and "zope
components"  - however this topic belongs on desk of the Zope foundation.

That's a bit shortsighted. First we want to get rid of the term
"Zope 3" in the future (since it confuses ppl). Second: decisions and 
discussons made in the Zope components world have an impact on the Zope 2 
world. Sorry to say but the Zope components world is not an island.
