Indeed, and as someone who has real live production code that does exactly this kind of thing, I'm a big -1 for these changes. I'm also about -sys.maxint on these changes for Zope 2.12 as I'd like to see 2.12 out the door as soon as possible. For me, a true buildout-compatible release wins over all else. I really think we should aim for nothing more in terms of features before 2.12 is out... cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
