Just a heads up,
I noticed that some of the contributed products don't acquire in Zope 2. Specifically TinyTables, and the Calendar tag. I'm curious what changed to make that happen. It's seems the same for both products. Just a shout to ask if anyone knows what spcifically changed about acquisition from Zope 1 to 2? I tried loking at the code, but got lost trying. Don't know. You can circumvent Acquisition (or any other kind of __getattr__ munging) by accessing directly the __dict__ attribute.
This works only from python code. AND it is generally a bad idea, because big parts of Zope rely upon Acquisition. For an example of acceptable disabling Acquisition, see the contributed Navigate product, which provides a Folder method that is quite handy when generating trees for site navigation.
