Why? The 'zope' namespace package is what Zope 3 is known as to outsiders and this will not be affected. > I understand your motivations Philipp. I just think this is too early. Aha, it's at least good to hear that you don't condemn the idea itself. I too wondered whether it's too early or not. I think it's exactly the right time, as Zope 2 is embracing lots more Zope 3 technology. > When Zope2 will look like a Zope3 'configuration' then maybe it could be > of interest. Getting there is the hard part. This proposal is about easing that. > I still believe Zope2 developers will come on Zope3 pretty easily. I think Martin Aspeli is not the only one who still has no clue on how to move forward beyond a certain Fivization of his Zope 2 products. If you do, then that's great, but I don't think everyone is in that fortunate situation. > > Zope 2's architecture might be shitty, but its > > community is bigger, don't forget that. > > I never said shitty. Take it easy on the interpretation. Yes, yes. You know how to interpret "shitty" very well... old, worn-out, inflated, etc... Seriously, when everyone gives gigakudos to Florent and offers him 10 gallons of beer for looking through Zope 2 security code, I think at least the maintainability of some of the Zope 2 code is shitty, or at least perceived to be shitty. > I still believe your proposal would be a mistake at this point for Zope3. So it's not a matter *if* but *when*. We're already one step further. I personally take on Martijn's suggestion and vote for after 2.8/3.2 is out. Why? Because some people, including me, have some major proposals for zope3ifying Zope 2 in the top-drawer of their desk, most of which would happen in 2.10 I presume.
