The fact that we still have a forked Twisted in Zope3 is directly tied to the absence of a crucial component in the released version of Twisted. Well, it's already not so bad. The zope.app.twisted is not the core package, and the zope.app.wsgi makes it easy to get the WSGI application of Zope. I've also just checked in an app_factory for PasteDeploy for it, so it can be used as an application component in the PasteDeploy pipeline without any additional python code. The zope.publisher also provides a simple WSGI application for use with paste. -- WBR, Dan Korostelev ___ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

The problem is that the Twisted egg doesn't contain the web2 module, used by zope's twisted-based WSGI server, so we can only try to integrate the latest release into zope.app.twisted itself, downloading the Twisted release using svn:external as we do now. I tried do do that before, but tests failed and I was unable to fix that, as I don't know twisted at all (shame on me). -- WBR, Dan Korostelev ___ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

Hey, Stephan Richter wrote: [snip] - Improve project setup As Shane pointed out, it is hard to get started. The solution could be a combination of documentation and tools, like zopeproject. It's not hard to get started as long as you use Zope 3 in the form of Grok. :) Grok has done a lot of work on getting a project set up, Windows support, and the like, and what you get when you use grokproject is essentially a Zope 3 project (with the extra Grok packages). grokproject has a lot of interesting features. It looks for the URL for the versions of the most recent release of Grok. It's now installing paster-based setup. It's also using things like z3c.recipe.eggbasket to pull in a whole bunch of eggs in a single tarball (from a single URL which means less potential for failure in theory). Etc. It might be worthwhile to review that work and reuse bits of it.

A good thing could be to integrate zopeproject. I also just committed my little sandbox setup that can be used to take a quick look at Zope3. I personally use it for playing with some eggs and for showing zope3 the application server to other people. It's based only on zc.buildout, zc.zope3recipes, and pure zcml setup. It doesn't use paste or any z3c package - just plain old zope3 on twisted with rotterdam and so on. It also contains an example of code that creates a new content type (with doctests). If we want people to start learning Zope3 through ZMI, may be something like that could be developed and used as a demo instead of z3c.formdemo :) I quite like it because it contains very few files and is rather easy to understand by newbie. Next, we may want to point people to packages like z3c.pagelet and z3c.form, so some tutorial should be written on how to add support for that to their current setup (z3c.rotterdam could be used as an easy way).

[Zope-dev] Planning for Zope 3.5
Hi all, now that we have Zope 3.4.0 finally behind us, let's look forward. As I said in the release notes, I am really willing to switch to a 6 months release cycle again. I think there are three areas that we can work on: - Python 2.6 support. I think this should be straight forward. We have to update packages to not use Python 2.6 keywords and review the AST changes. - Dependency reduction. Well, we are in the middle of this work already. - Improve project setup As Shane pointed out, it is hard to get started. The solution could be a combination of documentation and tools, like zopeproject. I am going to setup a Zope 3.5 development KGS shortly. Jim has already created the directory for me on the server.
