Hello I am *curious* to hear what you all think about Zope, openSource and credits... Looking throught the list at http://www.zopezen.org/links I was surprisd to see the radio station 1010Wins listed: http://1010wins.com/ which looks like a fast food clone of http://cbsnewyork.com/ But 1010wins.com is very fast and good at what it does. Also a good commercial showcase for Zope in fact. Or would be.. Now www.zope.org is famous for not showing off its own products capabilites http://www.zope.org/Resources/CaseStudies = new form of anti-adverstising but this is ridiculous. 1010wins is not even listed on zope.org. And neither 1010Wins nor CBSNewYork carry even the tiniest Zope logo. In fact if you search for 'zope' on either you'll get this: <quote> Zope Error Zope has encountered an error while publishing this resource. Error Type: TypeError Error Value: expected integer key </quote> oops!! ...go on try it if you want a good laugh :-))) http://1010wins.com/search_results_html?bodyInput=zope http://cbsnewyork.com/search_results_html?bodyInput=zope At __least__ that should return a simple page which says: This site is made with Zope..blahblah Perhaps one could just build that in to ZCatalog as default Ok, so everyone was way too busy keeping the client happy to worrry about such trivia. And it is often easy enough to prove it is a zope site [==> /manage] But is it trivial for Zope to miss this? Surely a minimum reasonable requirement / idea is that real zope sites, especially those used in the commercial or media worlds should carry some kind of logo/Zope_id/promo somewhere, even if not loudly on the home page where screen_estate is at premium? On could try to argue that as in many work for hire situations, the client has no implicit obligation to credit individuals, expecially if the contract says so. But even the movies go to some effort to blip your name up there for couple of seconds at the end. What does Zope stand to gain or lose by not by encouraging some modest mimimum credit inclusive license? How does it affect does DC and this community likewise? Is it tacky/helpful/irrelevant/essential to promote Zope in this fashion? Isn't America already dead from logo-fatigue syndrome? I am not trying to beat up on anyone, and I am truly delighted that DC's priorities are work hard to succeed as a company while feeding a great open source project. Elegant potent engineering arriving soon with good stability, features amd documentation. Yes these do come before hype and promo. But it seems a shame that ther is not a little higher profile material to help everyone get gigs and win arguments for why trust Zope.
