If you store your zope versions with regular backups of Data.fs, there is no need to dissemble your object tree in plain files. If you need the data, Data.fs is just as good as a file system it only needs a different "driver" which is the Zope from the time it was stored. Best practice is to store Zope source in a CVS. Data.fs may or may not be stored there as well.
hi Tino, very nice idea to keep the history for the future... Do you have run this "best practice" on a production system? Do I have to shut down my Zope, when I do a nightly "commit"? I don't know how CVS handles a Data.fs which is changed during the commit. I would guess that it should be no problem. Your idea could solve a big problem for me... I'm going to give it a try. thank you, maik
