I have (at least) two branches that will be merged before The Big Freeze on monday, if all goes well, and unless somebody has any very serious objections. 1. easter-sprint_traversal-refactor This was done by me an Micheal Kerrin during last weeks Sprint here in Paris. It involves a backwards compatible refactoring of the Zope2 publishing traversal. It will for special traversing of names and for default publishing traversal now use an IBrowserPublisher adapter. Objects wishing to override the default traversal would earlier have has a special __bobo_traverse__ method. They should now instead provide an IPublishTraversal adapter (or IBrowserPublisher, which extends IPublishTraversal). For backwards compatibility, any object that does not use an adapter will get a default adapter that tries to use __bobo_traverse__. Objects wishing to provide a special default name would easlier have a special __browser_default__ method. They should now intead provide an IPublishTraversal adapter. For backwards compatibility, any object that does not use an adapter will get a default adapter that tries to use __browser_default__. I also recommend that we deprecate both __bobo_traverse__ and __browser_default__, but perhaps with a longer derecation period that usual, since this are very basic techniques used in many products. Please discuss. :) 2. regebro-wsgi_refactor The work Michael and I did last week also included an effort to finish Sidnei da Silvas publication traversal branch, that attempts to replace ZPublisher with zope.publisher and ZServer with twisted. Trying to finish that work, I grew restless with the tight integration between all the modules, and have therefore tries to pry ZPublisher and ZServer apart, but wedging WSGI in between them. The modules are not 100% separated as the ZPublisher still imports some modules from the ZServer and the other way around, but there is now a WSGI application class that should be callable from any WSGI server. I propose to check this in to make it possible to use twisted with Zope2, even though we may not have time to include the twisted server in the release.
