How does versioning work with FTP access via ZServer? I have created a new version and it works very nicely, however, I can't get to my new version via ZServer--When I load a page in my editor via FTP, it's still the original version.
You cannot work in a version through FTP. There are no FTP semantics for entering or leaving or commiting or anything else like that. It's a protocol limitation.
That doesn't mean it can't be worked around by the Zope FTP server.... The FTP server could map: /zopever/myversionname to / in the "myversionname" version. /zopever/myversionname/topdir would map to /topdir in myversionname etc.... The CM tool we use (ClearCase) supports this kind of access scheme.
