If the policy were pluggable, I think that nobody would object to follow your proposal to use the Zope3 default. > ... >Why should I make it configurable?

I would prefer a mechanism as the current CMF uses it: Prevent the creation of a content object only when it really conflicts with something. Or at least, prevent only ids starting with "@@" or "++" (as these are the prefixes really used by Zope 3, right?). As mentioned in "zope-dev", I am primarily concerned with WebDAV integration. And our WebDAV using projects are in fact CMF based. On the other hand, if I am the only objector, do what you propose. I am able to change it in our Zope version to fit our needs. -- Dieter _______________________________________________ Zope-CMF maillist - Zope-CMF@lists.zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-cmf See http://collector.zope.org/CMF for bug reports and feature requests
