I see Zope 5 being a combination of Zope 2 and Zope 3, keeping the best of both.
I think we already have Zope 5, and it's called Zope 2.9.
Perhaps I'm wrong. If so, how does Zope 5 differ from Zope 2.9?
Are you kidding? Zope 5 will be backward compatible with Zope 2 and Zope 3. It will allow configurations that look a lot like Zope 3. It will have the best of both systems, and improvements to both. It is where we put all of out app-server efforts. Among other things, it will have Zope 3's publisher and security model. It will provide support for non-developers much the way Zope 2 does now, but with better solutions that ZClasses. And, it will allow us to cleanly separate the efforts on an application server, from out work on widely usable components. Jim -- Jim Fulton mailto:jim@zope.com Python Powered!
