<disclaimer> Lest there be any confusion, I'll point out that while Stephan has been working as a paid developer on SchoolTool, and I'm happy that he lobbies for issues that he perceives to be in the project's interest, like this one, he isn't doing so as a formal representative of SchoolTool as such. Stephan and I, let alone Mark, haven't discussed this proposal (yet), and I don't yet know what SchoolTool's position will be. </disclaimer> Tom Hoffman SchoolTool Project Manager _______________________________________________ Zope3-dev mailing list Zope3-dev@zope.org Unsub: http://mail.zope.org/mailman/options/zope3-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
