On the subject of deprecation, for the record, I think removing ZClasses is a mistake. They have legitimate uses. They have major flaws too. It would help if we would more clearly document their limitations and pitfalls, rather than get rid of them, at least until we have something better,
I think you are completely right, but I don't think there is anyone who wants to do this documentation task (let alone fix ZClasses) because of the high level of disdain among those people who are actively contributing and have enough knowledge to do it.
That's a shame. I don't think that this is a hard task, especially if the person who does it realizes that there is a subset of ZClasses that is useful and not that complicated. Everything else (e.g. "product" generation) should be avoided. Jim -- Jim Fulton mailto:jim@zope.com Python Powered!
