[Zope3-dev] ZOPE3 Maildir implementation

2006-04-07 Thread Pjotr Prins
I have a few questions regarding the ZOPE mailer implementation: 1. Why did you go for a file system implementation - as ZODB objects are being made into a mail queue anyway? The Maildir step could have been skipped, I suppose, just the connection to a mail server directly over the network interfa

[Zope3-dev] Update: Make zope.app smaller

2006-04-07 Thread Philipp von Weitershausen
Hi all, after some implementation, some feedback, some discussions and some more thinking, I've updated the "Make zope.app smaller" proposal (a.k.a. PackageGeddon Directors Cut). See http://dev.zope.org/Zope3/MakeZopeAppSmaller. There's a list of changes since the initial version of the proposal.

Marius just told me he chose a file system solution because the utility is not aware of ZODB, may not want to have ZODB and would survive crashes. Good points, really. On Fri, Apr 07, 2006 at 10:53:00AM -0400, Gary Poster wrote: > Typically you have this kind of design because Zope only has a >

[Zope3-dev] Time for a Decimal field type in zope.schema?

2006-04-07 Thread Jeff Rush
Perhaps this is an old topic, although I've done searches. I've seen the brief discussion about security proxies and the Decimal type on zope3-users, but (to zope3-dev) what about getting it added to the zope.schema as a first-class field type? So we can have auto-generated HTML forms and such
