State of the PTK, 2000/10/17

  * Michael Bernstein (mbernstein@profitscape.com) has made significant
    progress in his quest to re-integrate the Membership product with the
    PTK, especially in the area of listing members:

  * Bill Anderson <bill@noreboots.com> "announced",
        http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope-ptk/2000-October/001761.html
    that he was very selfishly taking time off from responding to list
    traffic, including messages about his Membership product, in order
    to get married! :) Congratulations and best wishes from the PTK
    community abound!

  * Tres Seaver "released version 0.9.0",
      http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope-ptk/2000-October/001797.html
    of the PTK.  "...and there was much rejoicing".

  * Tres then had to "pull one of the tarballs of the release",
      http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope-ptk/2000-October/001798.html
    because the "distribution tab" products for Wizard and DemoPortal
    depend on a stock ZClass (Products.OFSP._ZClass_for_DTMLMethod) which
    is not created at import time, but at product initialization time.

    Tres has "submitted a patch",
      http://classic.zope.org:8080/Collector/Collector/1687/view
    for this problem to the Zope Collector, but in the meanwhile, the
    distribution tab versions are not useful.

  * Bjorn Stabell <bjorn@exoweb.net> posted an "insightful summary":
      http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope-ptk/2000-October/001801.html
    of the issues involved in distributing part of the PTK as
    "through-the-web" software (i.e., DemoPortal).

  * Phillip Eby (pje@telecommunity.com) "announced new ZPatterns
    documentation",
      http://lists.zope.org/pipermail/zope-ptk/2000-October/001806.html
    including explanations of triggers and rules and a completed SkinScript
    reference.
