As longer as I think about your idea, you are probably right. I agree with not declaring __init__ in the interface. That's what we did. The only concren I have right now with IPagelet is inherited from IContentProvider is the default TALES expression which uses the following code for lookup IContentProvider: class TALESProviderExpression(expressions.StringExpr): ... # Try to look up the provider. provider = zope.component.queryMultiAdapter( (context, request, view), interfaces.IContentProvider, name) ... This requieres a specific __init__ method. What do you recommend to do? I'm open to improve it but how can we reflect the different adaption concepts like we have with the different __init__ used by IPagelet and IContentProvider. I agree that __init__ is not a part of the interface. But I also think it should be a part of a (probably another) interface since this is required by a specific lookup pattern.
