Note that I prototyped such functionality a couple years ago. One could create TTW (Persistent) schemas and then declare a Content Component Definition based on this schema. People could then create instances of those content components. The Content Component Definition utility took care of doing all the security and basic menu/view setup. One can then write views and adapters for the content component to give it functionality. Unfortunately, persistent schemas got broken at some point, so the code is not that useful anymore. I really need to get together with Jim and force him to fix the problem with me, since I constantly forget what the problem is. ;-) Regards, Stephan -- Stephan Richter CBU Physics & Chemistry (B.S.) / Tufts Physics (Ph.D. student) Web2k - Web Software Design, Development and Training _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
