AFAICS that allows to convert *all* tools into utilities.
Hi Yuppie, Why would you want to add a dependency for 3 lines of code? All that package does is register a 1 line event handler. I'd rather do that in the CMF itself. IMHO the "cleaner" way would be to make sure the request object is explicitly passed into any code that needs it. jens _______________________________________________ Zope-CMF maillist - Zope-CMF@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-cmf See https://bugs.launchpad.net/zope-cmf/ for bug reports and feature requests
