Well spotted!  It (plus the later patch) does fix the checkDuplicate
test failure on Windows, and I closed issue 1931.

Turns out the Five tests that were failing on Windows also fail on
Linux, but the failing tests don't run unless you pass ``--all`` to
test.py (which I normally do, but I guess most people don't, in which
case "most people" wouldn't see these failures).  I opened a new issue
about that:

About one week ago I  tried to build a test release using the HEAD. At that 
time there were open issues concerning zpgk (as Philikon also wrote in 
another posting). E.g. making the source tarball did not work properly. So 
being unable to build a source tarball is definitely a blocker for me.

Alas, I was directed not to work on this bug report "on the clock",
and I haven't had spare time to donate to it (of course there's the
usually irony with that:  by now I've probably spent 3x as long typing
about these bugs as it would have taken to fix them :-( ...).

Because I'm sure I noticed the bug within a day or two of its first
appearance, the obvious approach is to revert back to earlier
revisions of the trunk until finding the checkin that caused it.  I
thought I wrote up enough clues on zope-dev at the time that whoever
checked in the responsible change would think "ah, that's related to
what I did!" at once.  Alas again, nobody noticed.

So that's a clear path to fixing this one:  pinning the blame should
be sufficient ;-)  In the absence of the guilty party noticing they
were to blame, it takes someone on Windows to do the binary search
required (because someone on Linux won't see the failure).

BTW, notice that the Python tracebacks had exactly the same \ vs /
mixup in the same place (between "lib" and "python") as the two
originally failing tests.  That suggests (but doesn't prove) that a
change to sys.path is the ultimate cause.

BTW2, I have no idea why the later-failing Five test started failing
on Windows, and didn't spend any time investigating that one.

doesn't use any zpkg extensions is available at
http://www.plope.com/static/misc/setup.py .  I took this from the old
"setup.py" before Phil checked in his zpkg fixes, and added an Extension

Fair enough, but without zpkg there will be a lot more stitching work to
do.  Way too much of zope.app is stitched in at this point. That's not
a problem if we use zpkg to make the distribution.

I'm not sure what you mean by outsiders.

You're right, someone needs to define this.  For Zope 3, the release 
manager goes through the collector and marks bugs that have to be fixed
before the release as critical.  I really don't know what the process
is for Zope 2, but I did not that there were 9 bugs in the collector
marked critical.  In any case, the release manager should make the call.

Without Windows-centric developers who are motivated to investigate and
fix those bugs, I don't know what else we can do.

Note that of all the recent changes, I would jettison zpkg-based builds
*first* if our timebox is at risk;  I certainly wouldn't agree with
leaving the trunk frozen due to issues with a *very* recently-proposed
change which provides no measureable benefit to the users (as opposed to
maintainers).

Not on Windows:

Windows test failures on Zope trunk
http://www.zope.org/Collectors/Zope/1931

Certainly agree it would help to have a specific list of what (if
anything) still needs to fixed.  FWIW, I don't expect Windows test
failures to hold up a beta release (note that I didn't say that's a
policy I agree with ;-)).

Which bugs?  Sombebody needs to define this, or else risk having the
"outsiders" just walk away.

*I* know of no showstoppers:  all unit tests are passing, CMF-trunk runs
fine on the Zope trunk, etc.

This is a reminder that there will be a feature freeze for the December

We are committed to time-based releases. This means we need to be very
disciplined about deadlines.  If a cool new feature isn't quite
ready before November 1, then it could be be included in the June
release, for which the feature freeze will be May 1.




Cool.  I like the way the Ubuntu guys describe their freeze / process:

 http://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2005-February/004077.html

I don't know what would qualify for "release goals" versus "targets of
opportunity" for this cycle, though.



Me neither.  I have a sense that they are being a lot more formal
about their process than we are though.  Perhaps we should be more formal,
but I kind of doubt it.
