Call for new ZSyncer maintainer
by Paul Winkler 11 Jun '08

11 Jun '08

Hi folks, ZSyncer (http://sourceforge.net/projects/zsyncer) is in need of a new maintainer. Once in a while I get a question about ZSyncer. Sadly I have to face the fact that I have not been actively maintaining it for quite some time: I haven't used ZSyncer at all for over a year, have made no commits in that time, and no releases for over two years. So, while I'd be happy to do some paid work on ZSyncer if your employer really needs something done, I've clearly abdicated my leading role in ZSyncer's community (is there one?). Anybody care enough about it to step up? If so, contact me off-list. I would be happy to provide support during a transitional period. Summary of current status: * There are several fixes in CVS that should probably be released as 0.7.2, but I'm not sure if they're adequately tested. * Tests pass under zope 2.9; untested with 2.10 or trunk. * The code is, in my opinion, badly in need of refactoring and cleaning up. * There is a suite of ZopeTestCase tests. Should probably be broken up into smaller cases. -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com

BaseRequest.traverse, skins and BrowserViews
by Dylan Jay 11 Jun '08

11 Jun '08

The current setup of traversal seems to give precedence to objects in a skin, over a browserview... but only at the siteroot. Is this by design or accident? If by accident and not knowing the innards that well, is it possible to have the opposite occur? As in, I want to override search.pt from default Plone skins with my own browserview version. Seemed a reasonable thing to want to do to me anyway. Dylan. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

NOTICE: zope.org server move
by Jens Vagelpohl 11 Jun '08

11 Jun '08

The zope.org-related servers and services maintained by Zope Corporation will be moving to a new home late Thursday night Eastern Standard Time. What services are affected? --------------------------- The most important service addresses include... - www.zope.org - svn.zope.org - cvs.zope.org - mail.zope.org and lists.zope.org How long will the outage last? ---------------------------- The servers will be moved physically to a new hosting provider. There will be an outage of about 2 hours for the physical move, as well as an outage while the new DNS information for these services propagate throughout the internet. Service may be spotty for several hours past the 2 hour physical move window. Work is slated to start at about 11:00 PM Eastern Standard Time (04:00 GMT, 05:00 CEST). How does this affect me? ------------------------ If you are doing development on software stored on svn.zope.org, or if you want to surf www.zope.org or use the egg repository on zope.org you will see an outage lasting at least 2 hours. Please refrain from checking in software changes during this period and wait until the service addresses resolve normally. Mail to or from the Zope mailing lists will be interrupted until the physical move has been completed and the DNS record changes have propagated to your ISP. The Zope Corporation sysadmin team will handle the move, if you have any questions please contact me directly and I will clear up any issues with them. jens

Please stay on the list. There are enough ways for caching: RAMCache, HTTP Cache, external caches like Squid/Apache. I consider your approach partly broken.

Re: [Zope] zope.schema: association vs. containment in Object, List

My application (and I suspect other cases will) need to do just this; a marker on the field eliminates the ambiguity. Schema and interfaces should allow for complete "domain modeling" in such a way that expresses intent of the business case, regardless of the persistence mechanism or implementation details underneath, so I think I'll continue to use custom field types marked with an IRelationshipField interface, and assume the built-in Object, List fields are only used for containment. The only thing I do not like about my direction is that it leaves ambiguity when working with code from other components/projects that do not share this assumption. For RDBMS persistence of schema-defined content, z3c.dobbin (for example) assumes Object fields are just foreign-key relationships, but the downside to this simplification is an inability to meaningfully interact with a simple persisted containment scenario (a complex object that has contained specialized child objects intrinsically part of the primary object; trying to serialize to JSON with clear recursion boundaries for example, would be difficult). In my application-case, I'm looking to do something similar, but hoping to do so with a clear bright-line between associations and containment. Note: removal of such ambiguity is helpful for the possible use case of schema/interface bootstrapping/generation from UML tools for model-driven-design. Sean
