In general, you should be able to run Zope 2.6.2 with Python 2.2.3 without issues (but *don't* use Python 2.2 - 2.2.2, nor Zope 2.6 - 2.6.1 in this mode!). I'm afraid I don't know enough Windows majyk to tell you an easy way to upgrade the Python on the box; I would install 2.2.3 separately, and then hack the startup.bat (or whatever) to use that Python. > - I believe there's a concensus that the next major 2.X release should > jump immediately 2.3, but is there a timeline ? We are looking to release Zope 2.7b3 (which will prefer Python 2.3), soon, Here is what Brian wrote yesterday: > I'd like to try to have another bug day next Tuesday (Nov 3) to > make up for the one that was cut short last week, in preparation > for a beta 2 release of Zope 2.7. > > - or is there a workaround/solution to the "Bad Call" problem? > > This all to see if I should invest time in getting a 2.6 or 2.7 +python > 2.3 up and running or I should do my own time measurements/profiling effort. There are substantial performance benefits (at least on the platforms I know) in moving from 2.1.3 to 2.2.3. I am told, and believe, that 2.3.2 will provide further such benefits.
