big +1 from me...
Here's what I'd like to see:
1. Separate server definition from application definition. They are way
too interwoven now. I'd like to see us move to Paste Deploy (or
something based on the framework it defines).
Is this the seperation of "what objects are being served" from "what
protocols are being served" that I mentioned in my other reply?
In my dreams, it'd be great if I could just wire in a different
IApplication utility to get the root of the object tree and just leave
the zodb section of zope.conf empty. How hard would that be to achieve?
(the 2nd bit of it is important, I don't want zodbs opened, especially
if they're never going to get used)
2. Document how to use the zope.publisher framework to define web
applications. It isn't very complicated, it just needs some
documentation. I made a beginning of of this in my aborted bobo
project. A good start for examples would be a hello-world app, the
existing zope 3 app, and, I assume, Grok.
Yes, I'm curious about Grok too here, I hope someone who knows from that
project will pipe up. Would the hello-world app be akin to the stuff I
was nosing around in zope.app.appsetup?
cheers,
Chris
