I just thought a little more about the approach having a pool and some proxy objects that refer to the pool. I think it could be made quite neat when using just the following code for the proxies (DTML documents): <!--#var "RESPONSE.redirect ('/pool/'+id())"--> So you just need to put zope_is_cool inside your pool and add DTML documents with the above code under the same id to your folder structure wherever you like. Just check it out. Two caveats: - You have to use DTML documents, not methods, otherwise id() refers to the folder's id - Make sure that zope_is_cool really exists inside your pool, or you get an infinite redirection! (zope_is_cool is not found in the pool and then sought for along the aquisiton path, which refers to zope_is_cool itself, which redirects to the pool which ...) Maybe this could be even generalized to some kind of "symbolic link" product. Ideas anyone? Stefan
