Note that when you look at Zope2's zopeschema.xml's zodb_db config, there isn't a clue there that the section's name is used for something, let alone what it's used for. This lack of discoverability goes away when using an named key, and that's a better long-term place to be. I don't expect that adding an optional named key to <zodb> config will _stop_ <zodb_db> config from doing whatever it wants to do instead. If it does, I agree that would be a problem. _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - [email protected] http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
