I think we have a right to expect those newbies to be nice back ;-)
Generally speaking, with the growing poularity of Zope-solutions, where
Plone and CPS being popular solutions more or less "hide" the technology
behind, we get a bunch of people that do not necessarily care about the
technology behind plone/cps, they just wnat things to work.
If that's the case, they should either be prepared to pay someone.
Also, especially having the "marketing zope" discussions happening on
other lists, we need to come to terms with the fact that zope does not
exist in isolation from it's environment. Questions on the general Zope
list about issues and successes in deploying Zope, Zope performance
*ARE* legitimate questions on the list.
Yes, but when you point out more helpful forums to people and they just
whine back, they deserve all the abuse they get, I'm afraid...
So, questions and issues about threaded Pytohn apps are very likely to
be related to Zope, and shoudl not be dismissed ad-hoc-ly, in spite of
the answer being "google is your friend: zope+multi+cpu"
Not sure I agree. If people are expecting free help, they should at
least have the courtesy to do the ground work.

Having chatted with both the author and the researcher of that paper,
I don't remember the results being as clear-cut as you imply ;-)
having experienced this first hand, before the paper arrived (and it did
help me find the solution), I think I disagree :-)
I think we can agree that this isn't consistent for everyone, which
kindof proves the point that other options might be best explored first ;-)
I guess he was under the wrong impression that the zope-list was a
friendly and safe place to ask questions and get community support :)
For the vast majority of people, it is. If you're rude and lazy, then
maybe it shouldn't be ;-)
Checkov (or someone) said something along the lines of "good table
manners is not to not spill sauce on the table, but to not notice when
someone else does".
Visiting someone's house without an invitation and throwing sauce in
their face is not something I think covered by that phrase...
cheers,
Chris
