That's great! How to make this work in the context of a Zope 2/CMF
setup, the one Martin is working in? Remember the legacy codebase
here; it's not an option to throw it out just like that.
through Five I guess :-)
So what in Zope 3 lets you do a TTW modification of views right now?
Where should Martin start looking?
I don't have the competence though or the exact
vision on how to do it. What I'm doing though as a matter of philosophy
is to stick as much as possible to standard Zope3 concepts (adapters,
utilities, ZCML, event subscribers, views, ...), to make the backporting
from zope3 to zope2 easier.
That's good. Of course Five is trying to port these concepts over to
Zope 2, but I myself wouldn't know how to build TTW modification of Five
views right now. What's the Zope 3 equivalent?
Note that I doubt Martin can buy into all of CPSSkins anytime soon.
They're looking into porting CMF-style skins into Zope 3-style views
using Five. He's worried that the ability for TTW modification of views
will be gone when Zope 3 style views are in use in Plone. So, something
is needed in Zope 3 with at least equivalent power to TTW CMF skin
customization to Zope 2, without having to rewrite all of the Plone
skins in anything more than a fairly mechanical way. Evolution is the
keyword here; a revolution is not affordable.
