I started working in ZODB initially. But that time Jim was working on the 3.8 branch. He noticed my branch and started working on Python2.5 support to his branch. We had a discussion on this, in which I also asked about using conditional compilation of C code to ensure backward compatibility. He replied that it can be left for later consideration and its better to leave the warnings as it is for now. So as he also told that he will be looking the two remaining test failures, I deleted my branch without merging. >Especially the difficult part, the untrusted code stuff in Zope 2, >hasn't been tackled at all. At present the tests are passing for RestrictedPython( for Zope2 also). Also I have been analyzing the new language features added and is trying to add new tests for checking this. But I haven't yet found any that will compromise the security and also I think the present tests mostly covers these. Please correct me if I am wrong. Now as far as Zope2 is considered, although not a part of my project I will be looking into that too. But as far as I looked, it may require unavoidable C code changes and I would like to know the general opinion on conditional compilation (if no other option is present).
