I had a browse through the code at
http://svn.zope.org/CMF/trunk/CMFCore/interfaces. This work is interesting
to me not at least because it will enable us to write against CMF (and
hopefully Plone soon) code using Z3 idioms (e.g. accessing things through
interfaces, making it possible to use adapters etc.) I think the migration
path here has to be to get all the interfaces in place first, and then
gradually refactor code to work through these interfaces as necessary.
However, I notice that none of the manage_* methods are not there, and
that many things have accessors only. I haven't looked at it in the
detail, but I'm wondering what the policy is here. For things like setup
scripts or control panel views or whatnot, being able to mutate the values
in tools (http://svn.zope.org/CMF/trunk/CMFCore/interfaces/_tools.py) and
elsewhere (e.g. just setting dumb properties) would seem a necessary of
the interface. Am I missing something?
