So what does this mean for Five on Windows?
It means that you should tell people to put zope in a different directory than Zope. Both of these directories need to be on the Python path.
Hm, that's not a big deal then. I'm just at a loss how this would fix the case-insensitivity import problem on Windows; I think I'm missing something.
Alternatively, we can continue as planned to include zope.interface in 2.8, in which case we'll need to implement option 4 of the above proposal.
Why would we have to include zope.interface in Zope 2.8? Do we want to *use* it in the Zope 2.8 code? If not, then as easy to just install it (and other pieces of Zope 3) separately.
I'll note that 2.8 has some huge potential benefits:
- MVCC
- Cyclic GC of zope objects
that make it increasingly desireable yo get it out as soon as we can.
I realize Zope 2.8 has benefits, but I have quite a bit on my plate anyway. I'll help test option 4, but I can't really commit to implementing it. Regards, Martijn
