Maybe we shouldn't talk about a true way, but about a *preferred* way. I really think it's a damn pity to learn something, try it, have problems and finally find out I'd better done it in another way.
That's not very encouraging. Don't you agree?
Of course I agree, it would be nice if things were more clear. But the question is preferred by whom?
Preferred by whom? That should be the cummunity, but --since there are quite a few people in there-- I think it have to be the same people who decide about the Zope releases. (When is it coming out? What will be in it?) They must have the knowlidge to say what's preferred. (Who is that, btw?)
On the other hand, I think you have point when it comes to products. As far as I know, there is not really a general product guide.
So, if I'm correct, you think we should all come with ideas to improve the work of Trevor Toenjes? Yvon
