Brad, (sorry about not quoting Brad, we're still in the throws of mail server hell) We've kicked around the idea of an ExternalFile object, and I started a small project that fizzed out. My question was where to draw the line, do we make it a simple pipe to one file, or a Folderoid object that 'mounts' a part of a filesystem into Zope? The first would be pretty simple, the second would be pretty hard, IMO. Out of curiosity, what would byte ranging buy you? Do some clients request ranges? I think I read about this in the HTTP 1.1 spec... Michel PS We used to use WorldSock on the ISP I worked at a few years ago, I chuckled a bit when I saw you on our list, cuz I'm familiar with your products like your getting familiar with ours. ;)
