[Zope-dev] ZCatalog + ZCatalog

[Casey Duncan]

Yes, a revised version of this has been submitted to the collector. If
anyone is interested, the revised Catalog files can be found on my Zope home
page at http://www.zope.org/Members/Caseman I actually have talked to Chris
Petrilli about some other ideas for enhancing the Catalog. I want to add a
query method that allows you to pass a query string something like an SQL
where clause. Chris suggested we start a fishbowl discussion about it.

I'm working on a product for creating JPython applets within Zope at the
moment, although that should be done fairly soon I think. Once that is done
and things in the Catalog for Zope 2.3 get a bit more finalized, I will push
that project forward.

Other ideas on enhancing the Catalog are also welcome.

This looks great.

Have you put it in the collector yet?
(http://classic.zope.org:8080/Collector/ as a 'Feature w/patch')

You should chat to Chris Petrilli as he too seems to be on a Catalog
mission, ATM :-)

cheers,
