Zope at the LinuxExpo
I was a speaker at the Linux Expo (Moving 3 tier applications to Linux) and plugged Zope strongly during my talk. (Also had a chance to meet fearless leader Hadar in person at the tucows booth) There was a strong undercurrent of Zope awareness I felt building up and at least on person in my talk later confided to me that every conversation he has had at LinuxExpo about application servers and Java has inevitable ended up being a conversation about Zope! I discovered a few of things of possible interest to the Zope community (not sure if this has been posetd before) a) a site built on Zope called CodeCatalog <http://www.codecatalog.com/about> which has a searchable index of many popular open source source trees such as Linux, gcc .... It has hyperlinked cross references for most symbols. You may need to register to use. b) It undestands C, C++, Python and Java and has the source tree for Python 1.5.2, Mailman, gnome-python, wxPython also (ta-daa) Zope. The "about" page above claims that CodeCatalog is built using Zope - don't know if this means the text search is a Zope product or just the site is a Zope site. The original technology was built by the SourceGear ( ABiSource word processor) guys and sold to OpenAvenue.com ( owners of CodeCatalog.com) just days before LinuxExpo. Unfortunately the CodeCatalog technology appears NOT to be Open Source - perhaps Digital Creations can help with some nudges.

The site is called www.globalvue.com - it aims to be a vertical portal for global marketing and brand managers.

Yep.

The text search is not a Zope product. Zope is simply the front end to the index.

Days? Actually it was more like hours. :-) -- Eric W. Sink, Software Craftsman SourceGear Corporation eric@sourcegear.com
