[Zope-CVS] CVS: Products/Ape - CHANGES.txt:1.9

[Shane Hathaway]

Update of /cvs-repository/Products/Ape
In directory cvs.zope.org:/tmp/cvs-serv14876

Modified Files:
	CHANGES.txt 
Log Message:
Two changes that make storing the Zope root object reasonable:

  - Pickled remainders are now encoded in base64 and stored in the
    properties file.  Ape no longer creates .remainder files, although
    it will read them.  This reduces the number of files Ape creates
    and sets a precedent that any annotation can contain a pickle
    as long as it's encoded as text.

  - There is now one PersistentMappingSerializer.  It stores both
    references and simple objects.  To accomplish this, it has to
    store reference values differently from non-reference values.
    The non-references get pickled and stored in an annotation called 
    "other". 

In testing, Ape successfully acted as the main Zope 
database.  Woohoo!  (A little Zope hack was required, but it 
should be possible to fix that.)
