Correct. > I had earlier suggested to Stephan that we should keep the common > repository separate from ZSCP and there out of this proposal.

However, I personally do not have the resources to push two separate proposals on this, since I think the two are so closely related; in fact at the beginning I thought of them as one. If the common repository would not be part of the proposal, I would feel that people would dismiss it as "nice to have, but it ain't gonna happen". It is very important to me that we will be able to implement the process quickly and get on our way certifying packages. > I think both the ZSCP and the common repository (in the context of the > ZF) are a great idea.

To show their independence, I have (a) placed the two subjects into two separate main sections, (b) made sure that none of section 2 (ZSCP) requires anything from section 3 (the repository), and (c) made sure that the process does not depend on Open Source licenses or information that would only be known in public projects. I have spent a lot of time trying to be *very careful* rereading the sections over and over again. If you find that anything in the document contradicts those 3 points above, let me know! I am very interested in fixing those type of "bugs"! :-) Regards, Stephan -- Stephan Richter CBU Physics & Chemistry (B.S.) / Tufts Physics (Ph.D. student) Web2k - Web Software Design, Development and Training _______________________________________________ Zope3-users mailing list Zope3-users@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope3-users
