This is something I've wanted to see for a long time too. The Portal Toolkit (http://www.zope.org/Products/PTK) evidently has a "discussable" mixin class that allows users to add comments to documents. You may want to check it out. This feature should probably be abstracted out of the portal toolkit and made more generally available. I'd really like to see a "commentable document" product based on an atomic mixin class that we could reuse on Zope.org for how-tos, news items, etc. I really like ACS' "bboard" system, that's the kind of functionality I think these objects should provide. I wish I had time to write this.

Hi,

I am a long time ACS (Arsdigta Community System) user. I am checking out Zope recently and am impressed with its management Interface.

One thing that I miss from Zope is the ability to add comments to existing documents by all the readers of the document. Does anybody know a product that does it? Or, can one write one and pass it on to me:-)?

Since I do not read this high volume list regularly, can you please CC me if you have any suggestions?

Thanks, Rama
