Hi Chris, Ooops... Reading your reply shows me that I was unclear ;)
Zope will be the CMS system of the architecture (so it will render HTML). I only meant that it would get dynamic data using XML-RPC queries, but I already have an efficient product for this, so it's not an issue. So what they want is a Web Management Framework and CMS system. And they wonder if Zope is better than a JSP/Struts/Velocity solution. Don't get me wrong, I have been using Zope for almost 2 years now, I love it. The problem is that I don't do any Java development since then so I miss knowledge about Java evolutions in terms of Web Management Framework and CMS systems. So any links, advice, opinion, experience would be appreciated. Thanks a lot.

Zope excels at providing web services via XML-RPC. Basically: - You need to do exactly nothing to make a Zope application accessible via XML-RPC. - When Zope isn't responsible for rendering HTML, it can be quite fast. - Zope is capable of interfacing transactionally with many data stores. - C On Wed, 2005-08-17 at 12:59 +0100, Pascal Peregrina wrote: > Hi, > > I know that this is an unusual request, but if some of you have some > time to help me on this it would be great ! > > Basically, I can summarize the question I will have to answer this way : > "why should we use Zope 2 instead of JSP/struts" ? > > All the business logic of the company is implemented in services that > talk to backend and can be queried through xmlrpc (so this is fine for > Zope integration). > > So the context is to use Zope or JSP/struts to manage the presentation > layer. > > I am currently planning to talk about built-in ZMI and transaction > management, TAL, ... > > Thanks a lot for your help. > > Pascal > > > ********************************************************************** > This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and > intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they > are addressed.
