I was just reminded (by a zope3-dev question) of mount points. Zope2 has a mount-point capability that requires baboon patching of ZODB. The ZODB that will be used for Zope 2.9 has a multi-database feature that would allow a much simpler Zope 2 mount implementation that would not require even monkey patching of ZODB. It also, I think, would provide much more robust mounting behavior. It would be great if someone would update mounting for Zoep 2.9 to use multi-databases. I'd be happy to provide advice for such an effort. Of course, this would need to be completed before the November 1 feature freeze. Jim -- Jim Fulton mailto:jim@zope.com Python Powered!
