It might work with Python 2.3, but its target platform is currently 2.2.3. I think some folks are running it under 2.3 now. Compatibility issues will likely center around installation, configuration and startup. People are used to the "old-skool" Zope installation method ("python wo_pcgi.py") and configuration (via envvars). Neither works anymore. Installation is either via rpm, executable, or via "configure; make; make install". Configuration is performed via a apache-style config file instead of envvars. Startup is different inasmuch as there is no "z2.py" or "start" shell script; instead there's a zopectl script under UNIX and the system works as a service under Windows. Everything else should continue to work as it did under Zope 2.6.X (or continue to not work as the case may be ;-), difficulties imposed by the underlying Python revision differences notwithstanding. - C On Tue, 2003-08-26 at 20:11, Dennis Allison wrote:
Chris, 2.7b1 looks interesting. Will it work with Python 2.3 as well as 2.2.3? Also, can you give a handwaving estimate of compatibility problems with 2.6.2b3 and/or 2.6.2b5?
