Re: [Zope] initialize()

Hi Kevin, Please try not to send HTML mail to the list... thanks. the initialize function defined in __init__.py for each Product is a hook which makes it easier to perform registration and initialization tasks when the product is imported. If you search for "boring product" on zope.org, you'll find a how-to related to its usage. Kevin Howe wrote:

I've noticed that some ZOPE Python Products define an initialize() routine in their __init__.py file and some don't. From what I can tell it is not really needed, but simply offers a more organized way of registering the Product.

Is it good practice to define initialize(), and if so, why + what does it do?
