Only my own ;-)

 It seems likely that they will not be available in dtml (for the same

I didn't mean to dtml, I meant to all the Python code underneath.  I'm sure 
you've noticed there is a lot more to Zope than just DTML and Python methods.

Like what?

 I've been somewhat curious about this myself.

 The current release of Zope works well on python 2.0. If you are a
 cautious type, you might not want to use it on a production server
 yet. (I would certainly recommend you dont if you allow untrusted
 users to write dtml)

 Will there need to be large changes now that strings are proper objects?
  (the string functions are now methods of strings).  If so, will this mean
  the phasing out of _.string ?

 _.string is unlikely to go away.

 String methods are currently inaccessible TTW. The security
 implications of opening this up have not yet been assessed.

 Hi all

 Is anyone using or know the current state of Zope with python 2.0 ?

I've been somewhat curious about this myself.

_.string is unlikely to go away.

String methods are currently inaccessible TTW. The security
implications of opening this up have not yet been assessed.

Will the new Unicode support, does this mean Zope is now a big step closer to 
i18n?

My patches to give Zope full (full enough for me) unicode support are
at http://www.zope.org/Members/htrd/wstring.

And from the looks of things there are a large number of small changes that 
could be made to improve performance (such as the new 'augmented assignment' 
operators [ += *= /= and so on] )

It seems likely that they will not be available in dtml (for the same
reasons as regular assignment). The case for PythonMethods has not yet

watching closely,

Not closely enough ;-)
