The bad news is that I don't think I'll ever put in enough time to fully understand what went wrong here.
The good news is that the newly-released Zope 2.8.4 Windows installer, at http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.8.4 includes pywin32 build 205. If that doesn't fix PySECURITY_ATTRIBUTES problems for Plone users, you know which Mark Hammond to contact ;-) Thanks to all for the help! _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org 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 )
