Plat_Forms: Web development contest
by Christian Zagrodnick 21 Nov '06

21 Nov '06

Hi On January 25–26, 2007 there is the programming contest Plat_Forms (http://www.plat-forms.org) "Plat_Forms is an international programming contest. It aims at comparing different technological platforms for developing web-based applications: Java EE, .NET/ASP, PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby-on-Rails." The contest aims at the fact that there is no neutral comparison between the various web frameworks. To change that a total of 15 teams wich 3 persons each will compete. There is a maximum of 3 teams per platform. So if you want to represent the Python community with Zope, form a team of 3 and apply at http://www.plat-forms.org. The application deadline is November 30, 2006! My role in Plat_Forms is to represent the Python community in the contest commitee. I'm taking both part in deciding which teams will participate in the contest and evaluating the contest results. If you have any questions feel free to ask here, or mail to Lutz Prechelt (prechelt(a)inf.fu-berlin.de) -- Christian Zagrodnick gocept gmbh & co. kg · forsterstrasse 29 · 06112 halle/saale www.gocept.com · fon. +49 345 12298894 · fax. +49 345 12298891

Windows Installer Nice-to-have
by Chris Withers 20 Nov '06

20 Nov '06

Hi Sidnei, I don't know how easy this is to do, but one thing that would be _really_ nice would be to use an existing compatible python install rather than Zope splatting it's own in regardless. In fact, if we're re-doing the layout (which is, I think, a VERY good idea) my ideal layout would be: C:\Python24 C:\Zope\2.10.0 (NB: C:\Zope\2.10.0\Zope would NOT exist) C:\Zope\instance With C:\Python24 either being an existing Python install, if selected by the user, or being created in the same way as the normal Python installer does if its not there. Of course, if this option is implemented, you'd need to be able to specify where python gets put in case you don't want to overwrite an existing "normal" Python 2.4 install. I don't know what make a "Zope" python install "special"... What do other people think about this? cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk

Cache code in Shared/DC/ZRDB/DA.py
by Chris Withers 20 Nov '06

20 Nov '06

Hi Jim, I'm wondering if you can still remember the rational behind the cache code at around lines 355-387 of: http://svn.zope.org/Zope/trunk/lib/python/Shared/DC/ZRDB/DA.py?rev=68158&vi… This code is pretty old (checked in 5th Dec 1997) but has started causing a few people problems under high load: http://mail.zope.org/pipermail/zope-db/2006-September/004684.html http://www.zope.org/Collectors/Zope/2212 In particular: - in line 368, why is len(cache)>max_cache/2 used as a trigger to start cache clearing? (the /2 in particular) - does it matter that IOBTree.Bucket has gone away and that tcache is now a simple dictionary? It certainly seems to make the keys.reverse() on line 370 superfluous and the keys[-1]<t on line 371 less reliable. More generally, do you or does anyone else have any attachment to this code or would anyone mind if I ripped it out and replaced it with something simpler, with more comments and unit tests? cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
