I fully agree that it is not feasible to do everything at once, and that we should take small but continuous steps towards the goal. But my aim was first and foremost to point out that the currently proposed step is going *in the wrong direction* in my opinion. Upon that it's a little disheartening to hear that I'm trying to do too much. > Tres' proposal has the not inconsiderable advantage of merging work > already done. This feels a lot like "the facts are already there, end of discussion" to me, and I hope you agree that this is not a reasonable argument. > And, given that the work has come from an external if related > project, the main aim of exposing these libraries to the wider world > has been achieved. That is true and I'm glad we're leaving the monolithic state "it's all of Zope or nothing" behind more and more. However, to mention the goal again (which is worth moving towards, I think), I really think we should not split things up "just so" according to current mechanical requirements, but also think about conceptual boundaries.
