NOTICE: zope.org server move
by Jens Vagelpohl 11 Jun '08

11 Jun '08

The zope.org-related servers and services maintained by Zope Corporation will be moving to a new home late Thursday night Eastern Standard Time. What services are affected? --------------------------- The most important service addresses include... - www.zope.org - svn.zope.org - cvs.zope.org - mail.zope.org and lists.zope.org How long will the outage last? ---------------------------- The servers will be moved physically to a new hosting provider. There will be an outage of about 2 hours for the physical move, as well as an outage while the new DNS information for these services propagate throughout the internet. Service may be spotty for several hours past the 2 hour physical move window. Work is slated to start at about 11:00 PM Eastern Standard Time (04:00 GMT, 05:00 CEST). How does this affect me? ------------------------ If you are doing development on software stored on svn.zope.org, or if you want to surf www.zope.org or use the egg repository on zope.org you will see an outage lasting at least 2 hours. Please refrain from checking in software changes during this period and wait until the service addresses resolve normally. Mail to or from the Zope mailing lists will be interrupted until the physical move has been completed and the DNS record changes have propagated to your ISP. The Zope Corporation sysadmin team will handle the move, if you have any questions please contact me directly and I will clear up any issues with them. jens

Container bug with unicode traversal
by Christophe Combelles 11 Jun '08

11 Jun '08

Hi, If an object with a unicode name is copied then deleted, there is a unicode error. I've reported it here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/zope3/+bug/238579 This is annoying because the user account becomes unusable! The deleted object is kept in the user's clipboard, and the traversal is tried evereytime a folder is viewed, to check if the object is pasteable(). The ContainerTraversable adapter tries to gettattr with a unicode name. I've attached a patch with unittest + ftest + fix. Could you please check this is the right place or the right way to fix it? If this is ok, I will commit the fix. regards, Christophe

z3c.securitytool
by Daniel Blackburn 11 Jun '08

11 Jun '08

Hello all, Well after some persuasion I think it is about time to announce the Beta version of the z3c.securitytool project!! I would appreciate any feedback/advice to make this a more useful addition to the community. The page on http://pypi.python.org/pypi/z3c.securitytool lists how to run the demo and is pretty easy to add to existing projects. Thanks in advance Daniel Blackburn

permission inheritance from conflicting groups
by Daniel Blackburn 10 Jun '08

10 Jun '08

It seems that there either may be an issue with Zope security or I do not understand it properly. Please let me know what you guys think. Lets say we have a principal with no direct permissions or roles assigned to see a view index.html. The principal has two groups, group1 and group2. group1 allows the principal to see index.html and group2 denys access to index.html. It seems to me that in this situation of conflicting permissions a deny permission should result for the principal to the index view. However it does not, the permission will be digested into allowing the principal to have access to the view. Is this the desired behavior, or just simply overlooked. I looked in the doctests and did not see anything like this. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks

Restricted Python not handling slices correctly
by Stephan Richter 10 Jun '08

10 Jun '08

Hi everyone, I am starting to use Restricted Python a lot and I found the following problem with slicing: >>> from zope.security import checker >>> l = [1, 2] >>> l[-3:] [1, 2] >>> lp = checker.ProxyFactory(l) >>> lp[-3:] [2] The problem is that -3 gets converted to 1 somewhere, but it should be a negative number signalizing the slice to start at the beginning of the sequence. The problem exists both in Python 2.4 and 2.5 and affects both Zope 2 and 3, since both Zopes use the RestrictedPython package. I suspect that the problem lies with the new slicing syntax introduced in Python 2.4. I am willing to fix the bug, but I would need some guidance and goodwill from the gods of RestrictedPython. Anyone? Regards, Stephan -- Stephan Richter Web Software Design, Development and Training Google me. "Zope Stephan Richter"
