I need to be able to have many people collaborate on a project where they could send me text data delivered to a specific file that is assigned according to their geographic area. From that text file I will then utilize a python script to organize the text into XML for a book type publication. I am not sure if I should just collect the data in Zope, and then place it in Apache where scripts could manipulate the text for XML. I know that Python and Apache work very well for the XML conversion and XSLT. My main question is how would I design a form in Zope that would deliver the text file to that specific file listed above. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks
Zope's DocumentLibrary product might be useful for this project. It could provide an organizing principle for at least part of your problem.

A form is an input device allowing you to enter data. It is not intended to "deliver a file".
I would keep all data in Zope and write a file on request. I would use an External Method for this. However, your problem specification is too vague to say something reliably. Dieter
