I have code which outputs a zope site as a static "mirror". There are some real tricky issues like finding images. We use it here regularly since I'm not yet willing to serve from zope - so I construct my site dynamically and serve it as static html from apache. If you're willing to test (and that means let me know what happens !), contact me directly please. I have previously made it available but although about 30 people snarfed the files, not one had the courtesy to let me know if it worked for them.

Anyone know if there is a way to make Zope to output a static site? For doing client presentation, I often made a static copy of the site, just in case when connection is down, or when there is not even a connection available. Without a special design, this seems difficult, because Zope does not represent the Mime type in the id extension.

So after copying out the site, you get mostly files without the correct extension.

Additionally, there is the problem, that Zope sites when can be infinitly recursive. Actually, they always are, but with some luck, you don't have any infinite recursive links in the site.
