[Zope-dev] The future of Zope with XML

[Kevin Dangoor]

Hello,

    Thanks for getting this document going. It's good to see where XML is
going in Zope.

    I do have a question, though. For me, the main value in XML has been in
its usefulness as a flexible interchange format. Right now, I can store data
as objects (either straight Python or ZClasses) in Zope and transform those
into XML if I need to share it with the outside world (eg RSS). Similarly,
though I haven't done this, I believe I can take XML from the outside world,
parse it and store it in objects in the database. Are there advantages to
storing the data in Zope as XML vs. storing my data as objects?

Thanks,
Kevin
