BTB Mike, are back issues of the ZWN collected somewhere? It would be great to have a seperate archive of ZWN as a more concise form of the list's signal. -- J C Lawrence Home: claw@kanga.nu ----------(*) Other: coder@kanga.nu --=| A man is as sane as he is dangerous to his environment |=-- On Wed, 1 Mar 2000 18:51:39 -0500 (EST) Mike Pelletier <mike@digicool.com> wrote:

G'day, Zope Weekly News is a digest of some of the useful and interesting events which have occurred on the various Zope mailing lists and the Zope.org site. It is published each Wednesday evening.

Any opinions contained in the Zope Weekly News are those of the chronicler exclusively.

Announcements

New Products

* Software Product: PMPSurvey, by "sleeper"

This is another survey product. It supports single and multiple answer questions. It may easily be embedded within other web pages, and reportedly sports a nice management interface.

Updates

* Software Product: FSSession, by "gaaros"

This product can be used to maintain arbitrary per-visitor data (session data) without burdening your ZODB with excessive transactions. It does this by storing the sessions on your filesystem.

This update, 0.2.3, uses cPickle, which makes it faster and more flexible. There are additional new features.

* Software Product: BannerFolder, by "lalo"

This product randomly displays one of it's contained ads or DTML Methods. There are provisions for tracking click-thrus and for limiting the number of times an ad will display.

The current version is 0.4.

* Software Product: ZRadius, by "Zen"

This is a Radius authenticator. It can be used on it's own, or in Zope as a GenericUserFolder plug-in. This is a bug-fix release, bringing the version to 1.1.
