Hi there, sorry for the even larger lag ... here's the summaries from the IRC meetings of last week and this week: - Please don't put VCS properties ($Id) in code anymore. If you find them you may actively remove them. No need to spend time combing through the repository, though. - People are coming up with topic ideas for the Zope summit in September in Germany, including: - getting more compelling stories for Zope - better documentation - zope.org improvements - experimentation and folding common experiences into common code, higher quality code - describing Zope's use cases - Tres is currently building a tool (zope.optionalextension) to allow packages like zope.i18nmessageid to be build properly on platforms that don't support our C-Extensions (GAE. Jython, IronPython, Windows without compilers) - We need to deal with the fact that some projects in svn.zope.org are likely abandoned and we need to deal with it. Initially we will start annotating the repository policy report with 'last checkin time' and 'frequent committers' to allow everyone to scan through the rather large report and check for projects that they are interested in. - ZTK 1.0 vs Python 2.7 was discussed but there was no deviation from the outcome of the thread in this list. - We need help from the people who run Windows by actively fixing bugs as they appear on the builders. Please. :) The full reports are available here: http://docs.zope.org/zopetoolkit/zope-dev/index.html Christian -- Christian Theune · ct@gocept.com gocept gmbh & co. kg · forsterstraße 29 · 06112 halle (saale) · germany http://gocept.com · tel +49 345 1229889 0 · fax +49 345 1229889 1 Zope and Plone consulting and development
