Zope's built in FTP server is one of it's huge stengths, IMO. He hasn't realised this and so bitches about it. You can always turn it off you know! Likewise the HTTP server, run Zope as a CGI if you must! :P
"Apache already exists and is highly flexible and configurable" of course it is, use it if you want, grrr..... TMTOWTODI.
But cgi is slow. and using mod_proxy is not beatiful and adds latency.
what isn't "beautiful" about using mod_proxy? I have 8 sites using it. It works great. Latency? It's neglible. More time is spent publishing the objects than is spent pushing it through the proxy.
Besides, the zserver on 2.1.6 seems to have bugs that sometimes let the page only 90% through. I've really wondered, why all the trouble of using a own HTTP server, Apache is a great HTTP server and most users run it anyway. which leads to the natural question:
1) I use 2.1.6 on 4 of my sites. I have never seen this problem. 2) You can always upgrade.
Why isn't there a mod_zope module?
