I just tried it and discovered some subtle problems with __getattr__. It could be the result of TransparentFolders, which is also running on my system. The released versions of BTreeFolder and TransparentFolders work together, but not when I decomposed BTreeFolder into base classes. YMMV!

I think the main problem you'll run into will be the UI, since the BTreeFolder is going to probably display all its contents without filtering out PlugIns. You may have to do some work on that. Other than that, though, my guess is that a BTreeFolder mixin would layer nicely over PlugInContainer. ___ Zope-Dev maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
