Dear friends, just by chance, I got into the position to try out Zope 2.7.0 beta 1/2, and since it needs Python 2.2.3 at least, and Stackless 3.0 was just ported to that, I tried to build Zope with Stackless 3.0. It works very very well! After a few patches to get the includes right, here the installation instructions. Get the current Stakless 3.0 beta. CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@centera.de:/home/cvs export CVSROOT cvs co stackless cd stackless/src ./configure make # su if your weren't root make install Then, install the Zope source, and make the same dance as usual. Just a note: Zope doesn't (yet) use any of the Stackless features. It just builds and works with it. But of course, *you* can use the stackless features, of course. I also expect, that Zope will create a branch in some future and implement a new Medusa which doesn't need real threads. cheers and let me know of your experience -- chris -- Christian Tismer :^) <mailto:tismer@tismer.com> Mission Impossible 5oftware : Have a break!
