I suggested the term Zope Method for anything Zope regards as a method, giving Python Zope Method, Perl Zope Method, DTML Zope Method, SQL Zope Method, etc. But Chris Withers thought those to be too long and unwieldy. OK, what about ZMethod? Thus Python ZMethod, Perl ZMethod, DTML ZMethod, SQL ZMethod. I was quite favourably disposed toward Operation, but I wanted to keep 'method' somehow as it I felt it better brought out the acquisition aspect.
