I am merging Zope modifications into our locally maintained Zope version since about 1998. Lots of merges took place without me even knowing that something happened and without any need to understand things. Of course, there have been occational problems and then I had to get local understanding to fix things. In the Zope3 forward porting case, we can instead ask the fix author to do the port instead. -- Dieter _______________________________________________ Zope3-dev mailing list Zope3-dev@zope.org Unsub: http://mail.zope.org/mailman/options/zope3-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
