At least no one is expecting to make such big changes by yourself. Being
stubborn and refusing to do further contributions, be they large or small,
isn't going to get us anywhere. The people who are so far backing up this
proposal have nothing but support to offer and you know that.
I am as stubborn refusing this proposal as you are pushing it. Right now there
are more -1 votes than +1 votes.
My vote is a +1 too.
Maybe it is time retract the proposal?
Furthermore, I have yet to see contributions for Zope 3 from people using
Five. We are not even getting bug reports.
Maybe because the small part of Zope 3 they use through Five is well tested?
Frankly if someone refactors Zope 3 and this causes tests breakage in Zope 2
or Five tests, a Zope 2 or a Five developer will be happy to fix them very
quickly, and there's a 50% chance that it will reveal something missed in
the Zope 3 tests.
Also I've seen some comments that the Zope 3 base will become "polluted",
that's nonsense, there will always be "pure" packages of Zope 3 out there
without the Zope 2 part. Remember this is a proposal about merging
repositories only, so that lots of time is not wasted setting up sandboxes,
merging stuff left and right, and running tests in some forgotten area that
also matters.
And if Zope 3 developers don't want to run the Zope 2 tests because they're
costly in time, it's trivial to do so.
