describes some of the code problems with Zope's current way of mounting databases. ZODB 3.4 (still) has a Mount.py module, unused and untested by ZODB. Jim and I were both surprised today to discover that Zope (2.8) still imports it, so we can't drop it for ZODB 3.4 (Zope 2.8, and the ZODB 3.4 it uses, are both in beta). We'd like to continue getting non-ZODB code out of the ZODB project, so would like to drop Mount.py from ZODB 3.5. Are any of zodb-dev's "standalone" ZODB users making use of Mount.py? I would be surprised by that too, since Mount.py relies on other code (like Acquisition) that's already been removed from the ZODB 3.3 and 3.4 lines. I've been surprised before, though ... _______________________________________________ For more information about ZODB, see the ZODB Wiki: http://www.zope.org/Wikis/ZODB/ ZODB-Dev mailing list - ZODB-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zodb-dev
