Well, I am looking at two methods, one would have Base Classes in Python, that the ZClasses would inherit from. The management would all be done inside of Zope. I am implementing a "BannerManager" that would determine the defaults, etc..
One advantage of Python is that it could be independant, as opposed to being dependant on other products. Perhaps the mix of ZClasses and Python would be the best.
It is. Even if it requires frequent Zope restarts during the development of the base class it's faster because you avoid yucky DTML programming. The trick is to be careful when you decide what to do in Python and what to leave to the ZClasses. -Petru
