On that thought, I'd like to see Zope.org become much more modern, and reflect the *latest* and *greatest* functionality of Zope. Deprecation of the hybrid PTK that's used, as well as updating and polishing of the site regularly. In fact, I'd like to see more of a portal feel to it, that's both personalized and customized to my needs. For instance, log into my account, download 2.5.1b1, come back a week later and here's a big notice that beta2 is available for *my* setup. Also, can we see some Web services? Imagine, in the management interface, and visiting the Control Panel. There is an "Update" tab, which when loaded queries zope.org with the XML-RPC method "zope.webservices.getUpdates(my_install)", which passes in my server's version, installed products, etc. and lists updates, hotfixes, and other notices. With the flexibility and dynamic runtime nature of Python, i wonder how hard it would be to update a running server.
Head over to zope-web@zope.org and help out then; the effort to build a new zope.org is already well under way. -- Martijn Pieters | Software Engineer mailto:mj@zope.com | Zope Corporation http://www.zope.com/ | Creators of Zope http://www.zope.org/ ---------------------------------------------
