www.zope.org doesn't support reget
An annoyance I noticed way back when I tried to download Zope 1.9.0: www.zope.org (and therefore Zope ?) doesn't seem to support the HTTP Range header, i.e. a reget (wget -c) for an interrupted download didn't work. Is this known, is this intended, is this still true, and will/can it be fixed in the future ? Gregor

This is called "byte-serving" and is mostly used for things like PDF files, which can be served in "pages" rather than all at once. It was discussed a couple months back, but nobody has stepped up to the plate to implement it :-) Is that a code offer I hear? :-) hehehe Chris -- | Christopher Petrilli ``Television is bubble-gum for | petrilli@amber.org the mind.''-Frank Lloyd Wright
