You are probably right -- but "SimpleUserFolder" is really "simple" (which sometimes is good). Had *you* used all these reusable components to provide the functionality in SUF, standard users could have used then out of the box -- with just sumitting a configuration page. As it is now, they have to think about (e.g.) cache management and invalidation. I would like to stress that I do not think SUF were bad. I just defend my statement that "exUserFolder" is something like a big brother to SUF. Simple is beautiful, if it meats the given requirements... -- Dieter _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
