Most of the active Zope developers do *not* run Zope on Windows, which is why there are no Windows binaries for recent Zope versions. We do have plenty of real world experience with running Zope on Linux, Mac, and other Unixoid systems.

I really hope to fix this image that Zope is a second/third-class citizen when it comes to Windows. That is certainly not the case these days, but yet it's common to see people making it look like. I guess it's more a matter of 'spreading the word'. -- Sidnei da Silva Enfold Systemshttp://enfoldsystems.com Fax +1 832 201 8856 Office +1 713 942 2377 Ext 214 ___ 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 company I am mainly working for uses Zope as platform for desktop products. This means every customer has a running Zope server on Windows. We are talking of more 100k client-side installations so there are likely much more Zope users on Windows than on Linux :-) -aj pgpYA4Ejhja80.pgp Description: PGP signature ___ 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 )
