Re: [Zope] DC request re: Objection to Python Script Name
When I 'jumped in' (nod to Chris Withers :-)) with my promotion of ZMethod, I'd missed Evan's announcement that he'd decided on Python Script - I thought it was just another suggestion and we were still in the middle of campaigning for the upcoming second poll! I'm actually not that averse to Script; it was ZMethod's OO associations that I liked - but if Michel thinks that such an association is actually not appropriate in this situation, then I'll bow to his greater Zope understanding. I agree with him that the new name needs to make it into the book, and Script is a reasonable choice. Is it intended to rename DTML Method, ZSQL Method, etc to be DTML Script, SQL Script, etc? For the sake of consistency I'm hoping so, and I think it's important that these revisions also make it into the book. Onwards!

I agree that this consistency is important, and "before the book" is a good time to disrupt names. Also, what about External Method? External Script? Also, are these going to remain only available in the Python language? If not, that name becomes an issue too. I hope all this naming talk isn't too distracting for DC, but I (and clearly others) think it's important, esp. before the world sees it in print. --- Ron
