Re: [Zope] 2.3.0 really not Beta?
Absoluteley not. But it is strange to see people demanding stable software without doing something good for it.
I will tell you what I did for Zope: I created a CD-ROM with video presentations of the ease of using Zope. As far as I know there doesn't exist such stuff on the Zope site. That's why we created it ourselves. Open Source doesn't only live of the programmers. There are the guys too who fight with the dummy managers who think only micro~1.oft Software is good business software. But of course this is some work you cannot see on this mailing list.
Now something more constructive. First time I installed 2.3 I copied old Data.fs from 2.2.5, but later I found that 2.3 has much nicer interface, and I wanted to preserve its original root folder, so I restarted 2.2.5, exported all folders, and imported them to fresh 2.3. I also copied all products (except for SiteAccess - it is bundled with 2.3, finally) and reimported all ZClassess (I use 2 such >Products).
I did it exactly the same way except of the reimporting of ZClasses. There is no such product. The only product may be LocalFS. which I installed AFTER the reimporting of the exported object-tree. Thank you, this was a really constructive note. _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.

You may have hit on something there. LocalFS doesn't work properly in the 2.3.0 management interface without a patch. If you have a LocalFS object in a folder, you will get an error message about _local_path (or something like that). Is this the error message you're getting? If so, I'll send you my patch. I know the author is working on it, but I can't answer for him as to when updates will be posted. If this isn't the error message, it would help tremendously if you could post the error message and traceback you get. They tell a lot. _______________________ Ron Bickers Logic Etc, Inc. rbickers@logicetc.com

It, perhaps, should be visible in some form or another. Post announcement from time to time. Thanks for supporting us. PS. I am a programmer, yes. But not only. I am (an informal) leader of Russian Python and Zope community, and I struggle to make our small and not so active community more active :) I maintain our site and do all managerial things - look for better and cheaper hosting, encourage people to write articles for the site, ask permissions to republish other's work. And of course there is a miling lists where I answer a hundred question a day :) Oleg. ---- Oleg Broytmann http://www.zope.org/Members/phd/ phd@phd.pp.ru Programmers don't die, they just GOSUB without RETURN.
