I have completed a first draft of an implementation of a proposal for for changes to the SessionCredentials Access code (zope.app.authentication). http://wiki.zope.org/zope3/SessionCredentialsAPIEnhancements I want to put them somewhere so that they can be discussed. I think that a svn.zope.org/Sandbox is the appropriate place. Can I get committer access to the subversion repository to make changes to this area? [According to the faq, I ask for commiter access on this list]. Alternatively, is there another location where proposed changes to the core are generally posted. Thanks Kevin

1. IP Extraction
Extract the IP Address from the credentials and store it. Return the IP Address in the dictionary from extractCredentials().
The value from request._environ['HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR'] will be used if present. otherwise request._environ['REMOTE_ADDR'].
On a basis of "privacy" of attributes starting with underscore, such as _environ, I would suggest using request.headers (for X-Forwarded- For) and request.environment instead. These are defined in the public interface API.
