Hi, I had a look at: http://www.zope.org/Products/user_management?batch_size%3Aint%3Arequired=100 Most of them are a bit old... and might not run on current Zope version. I think there should be some cleaning...isn't it?

The listings are autogenerated from user submitted products. Which kind of cleanup are you thinking of ? Michael -- http://www.zope.org/Members/d2m http:/planetzope.org

For example, Products last modified in 2002 are definitely out of date. It will never work on current releases...

You could have given a name... Well, I am volunteer to test them one by one on a 2.10 or even a 3.x, but it's worth.
FScounter from 2002 ImageTag_Hotfix from 2001 TinyTablePlus from 2000 (with patch from debian zope users) UserCounter from 2001 ZipFolder from 2001 MSSQL adapter from 2003

Ok, now we know at least one user needs those old products. The goal of my "question" was also to find if there is any...

Really? Squishdot was last released about then, and it still runs just fine ;-) I dare say the same is true of TinyTablePlus and that's even older... Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
LocalFS ZopeShortCut both very nice, useful & work with 2.9.x, 2.10.x .......................................................................... Zope.org is a scary sad stupid mess, BUT yes it's also full of useful stuff But oh boy its some tlc and some web2.0 commonsense interface friendliness Like add a form so people can flag and comment notes and version goodness and trouble METADATA for fucksakes.. Then one could actually sort and search for products in more useful, less time consuming random way. But then it would'nt be zope if you did'nt need hope right Things that would be really useful to know: list/sort/search products by -- "last date product was updated" [then you could narrow to only within 1 year . If no good or some special need, widen the timerange.] -- "number of downloads" << this could be very useful indicator of aliviness or currrent validity -- "abandonned" << lots of products say that they are discontinued. Good to know. But if only that info were stored as metadata flag [with date of announcment], imagine ow uch easier it would be. -- "Plone dependencies" == packages needing some version of plone -- "Zope 3 dependencies" == products using Zope 3 -- "now hosted elseware" -- many are mainatained elsewere with newer versions etc -- "dead link" << WHY is it so hard for noble prize winning dynamic Zope to track a dead url, and save one all that extra hassle ???

Some Products deprecated ( and some not ) only need minor editing to get working again such as I did to a Product when moving to a newer Zope. Even I can do minor edits and help from the list makes it even easier and quicker when I can't find a solution on my own. Just because a Product is deprecated doesn't necessarily mean it is totally unusable or useless. Although there has been mentioned a good point in being able to scope searches in the Products.

You might be right for "UserManagement" products (because UserManagement is nowadays done with "PAS" (Pluggable Authentication Service) -- however, it is wrong in general. I have quite a few products which still work without problems allthough I had not to do anything for them....
It will never work on current releases...
Here, you err even for "UserManagement" products. User Management is rock solid. Nothing changed here for ages which had made User Management products not working (with a few esoteric exceptions such as "LoginManager"). -- Dieter
DO NOT, please! Many of us run very old zope versions from 2.1 and maybe older - and sometime we need some rare old product. Bring to life old.zope.org, please!
