I'm not sure that such a drastic change can be done without breaking expectations set by previous Zope releases. But I'll let the Powers That Be decide on this -- I'm not touching the default configuration. --Guido van Rossum (home page: http://www.python.org/~guido/) _______________________________________________ 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 )
