I guess we can disregard most of my 'Products as eggs' mail and simply allowing us to point to products directories in the Zope 2 instance recipe. I think a good pattern would be to simply have a 'Products' directory directly in the buildout directory. Shouldn't we have the same distinction between products and development products as we have it with eggs and development eggs? Ideally perhaps, but since Products are just simple directories and don't really support this, we might want to skip this step for now. If you develop a set of products based on CMF for example, you might want to have an unpacked tarball of the latest CMF release lying around and have it included in the Zope instance, plus your own products that probably come directly from a SVN checkout. This would give us both a products and develop-products directory, which you could both include in an instance's zope.conf. If we can make this work that would of course be nice. :) Regards, Martijn ___ 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 )
