 Hmm, I thought that Zope3's security machinery set the response code to
 403 (forbidden) rather than a 401 (Unauthorized) if the user is already
 authenticated. but then tries to do something not allowed.  Browsers
 (rightfully) don't treat a 403 as a prompt to reauthenticate.  The
 configureed authentication service *may* override that to raise
 Unauthorized, but that is not mandated.

I think Zope has a notion of saying there is no way you could authorize
to do this and well. you can't do this now, but you might be able.

I think the first thing would be totally private stuff (like in Zope 2
using declarePrivate()) whereas the second thing would be things where
the user just misses a permission.

AFAIK things without permission declarations are private and the user
stands no chance to provide credentials that give him enough grants.

Hm. I don't have the time to think hard about this right now,
but I suspect the model you are following isn't quite right.  Rather than
implicitly looking for a paste file in a magic location, I suspect that you
should name the paste file in your ZConfig file or possibly extend the ZConfig
schema with components that reproduce what's normally found in a paste config
file (app definitions, server definitions, etc.).  Of course, either of these
options requires updating the ZConfig schema which is a real pain, so I can
understand why you wouldn't want to do that.

And you're right to the point.

My original intention was to put the config file location in the
ZConfig schema, but that's *wy* too painful right now.

OTOH, it does seem to work pretty reasonably right now to serve as a
prototype. I have other concerns than if the config file location is
magic or not at the moment. I mean, it's probably better that it's
hardcoded to 'INSTANCE/etc/paste.ini' than configurable at this
point. I don't think one would need *more than one* paste.deploy
configuration file anyway, so changing it's name would be pretty
pointless.

I think we can slowly progress from here, solving the ZConfig problem,
then the server-type-always-takes-db-argument and eventually end up
with zope.paste in the main tree and having the default wsgi server be
configured using paste.deploy.

BTW, I've updated the README.txt to include a more extensive
description of how to use it right now:

http://svn.zope.org/zope.paste/trunk/README.txt?rev=41449view=markup

Thoughts?

Sorry, I've removed some context from this email, so I guess nobody

I had added a call to pkg_resource.declare_namespace() to Zope 3's
zope/__init__.py, which enables one to have sub packages of 'zope'
distributed as eggs.

Stephan complained that this is not a 'bugfix' but a 'new feature' and
asked me to revert, which I promptly did.

I suspect that no new Zope 3.2.x release will come out soon anyway, so
maybe it doesn't make sense to add it there really, but it would be
really nice to have this feature available before the 3.3 release.

Does anybody care about using eggs with Zope 3.2?

I thought Tres had added to ZConfig the possibility to have arbitrary

It seems like a stretch to call making 3.2 work with eggs a bug fix. 
But it's probably a moot point if we change the release cycle to be 
May/November, 3.3 would be out pretty quickly.

I care about not adding this functionality in a stable release as I am
totally unsure of how it will affect the Debian packaging of Zope.

Debian packaging and eggs do not see eye to eye sometimes.

 I can't even explain well what made it painful because I didn't really

 feedback on the ZCML extension mechanisms.  shrug/

Extending ZConfig is tough

Chris and me find it easy...

 but ZCML meta directives and 
schemas are so easy to use.

I do not yet know ZCML...

When I have read your book I was scared away from ZCML by the
amount of namespaces and directives -- in addition that
I do not like the XML hype (that part that seems to imply that as soon
as something is XML it is also easy and well understood).

It is essentially the %import package extension of ZConfig.
It allows package to define its own sections types.
Almost surely, %import is already available in the ZConfig
version for Zope 3.

The additional piece necessary is a placeholder in the schema itself
consisting of a multisection of some abstract type.
To define package specific extensions, the package can
implement this abstract type.

This part might not yet be in the Zope 3 schema.
