Hi Santi. The Zope2 official way of extending objects at runtime is acquisition.
The easiest way to make use of it is to put the methods/scripts you need in the acquisition path (e.g. closer to the root). There are more sofisticated methods, such as SkinnedFolders and "TransparentFolders" that allow you to shape acquisition to avoid cluttering parent folders with methods and/or a more precise control of the selection of objects to be aquired. All of the methods of shapping acquisition rely on creative interpretation/manipulation of the __of__() method of acquisition-aware objects. Acquisition is very powerful, and very "magic" at the same time. Adapters is Zope3 way of implementing "Acquisition" in a less "surprising" way.
