correct. I don´t remember right now which was the first release to feature your zpublisher.client code, possibly it was 0.6.0. note that Alan Milligan subsequently contributed another transport back-end, as he was having problems with ZPublisher.Client not working over SSL as I recall. Alan´s "ConnectionMgr" seems to work well, nobody has reported problems with it so it´s now the default since at least 0.6.1. The ZPublisher.Client code is still a configurable option and still works AFAIK. The old XML-RPC code is still there, but it has not worked in a long time and will likely be removed soon. It is a poor choice for the application anyway IMHO, as there´s nothing to gain and many resources to lose by encoding and decoding large blobs as XML. Also note, Dieter, the zsyncer trunk is substantially different from the 0.6 series, with lots of internal changes, some new methods, and some public method signature changes. So if you want to work on zope 2.8 support I would strongly encourage you to take a look at the trunk. One major improvement is that there are some unit tests now, over 30 at last count. There is still a lot of cleaning up to do, but the tests should hopefully make that easier to do. Finally, Dieter, if you want to get your changes into zsyncer without working through an intermediary, I´d be happy to give you checkin privileges. Do you have a Sourceforge account? -PW _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - [email protected] 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 )
