Now the problem is... licensing. The project seems dead for 15 years but 
I don't see a license files in 
. The readme says ZPL, but 
not version is listed. Is ZPL still a thing?


The original old code in 
 seems to have a 
MIT-like license.



The product will need to be repackaged as an egg or wheel first, otherwise you 
won’t be able to start any real compatibility testing. Zope 4 does not allow 
you to just unzip a product inside a products folder anymore

Most products only need minor modifications once they are repackaged. How to do 
this repackaging is a general Python packaging question, I suggest you just 
look at Zope products that are compatible, e.g. 
https://github.com/zopefoundation/Products.PluginRegistry, to get an idea.


That is useful. Thanks.


Zope products are hosted where all other Python packages are hosted: pypi.org.


Understood.

To prevent confusion: Code and collaboration tools for development are hosted 
on github.com. The installable packages are hosted on pypi.org.

Hi Jesus,

I don’t know anything about ExtFile/ExtImage specifically, the only reference I 
was able to find is from old.zope.org and no one has touched it since 2007. It 
looks like there is no support.

The product will need to be repackaged as an egg or wheel first, otherwise you 
won’t be able to start any real compatibility testing. Zope 4 does not allow 
you to just unzip a product inside a products folder anymore.

Most products only need minor modifications once they are repackaged. How to do

Re: [Zope] ExtFile/ExtImage compatibility with Zope 4/5?

[Jürgen Gmach]

Hey Jesus,

I will write a more extensive e-mail tomorrow, but as a starter...

Most Zope plugins are hosted now at https://github.com/zopefoundation

The best place to ask questions about Zope is the discussion board at 
https://community.plone.org/

Best,
Jürgen

Betreff: [Zope] ExtFile/ExtImage compatibility with Zope 4/5?

I am getting ready to migrate to Zope 4, and checking products I depends
massively on ExtFile/ExtImage. I wonder about the support of that
product or something similar.

Where are third-party Zope products hosted nowadays?

If this product is not supported/abandoned in Zope 4/5, would be people
interested in a fork maintained by me?

Could I ask here questions about "the modern way" of writing products
for current Zope? If not, who/where should I ask?

Thanks.
