[Zope-dev] Preliminary test of Membership on CVS

Just thought I'd give a quick notice regarding Membership.

I am trying it out on 2.3 (getting in early :). So far, the only problem
lies in LoginManager.

With LoginManager, the problem is that it tries to import "Super". in
2.3, Super is gone. It seems to be replaced by UnrestrictedUser. By
doing a search and replace on these (there are two instances of it,
IIRC), it works fine, almost.

It seems that Loginmanager looks for an access file. With the new user
system in 2.3, there may not be an access file. I just ran the
zpasswd.py file to create the Emergency user, and all went fine.


On a related note, I am considering changing the python methods to
Python Scripts, this way when 2.3 comes out, it drops the number of
additional installs required by one, leaving Loginmanager and ZPatterns
the only (current) requirements. Python Scripts eem much better to use
than Python Methods anyway ;)

Any thoughts on that from the community?
