[Zope-dev] Zope Server Control

[sean.upton@uniontrib.com]

I agree that this is a good idea.  Doesn't PyQt require a commercial license
on Win32?  The de-coupled backend is a good idea, and I would love to have
alternatives - I'm a bit slanted towards wxPython, myself. ;)

Heck, I would love to have an curses-based alternative to manage, monitor,
and provide an interface to restart all ZEO clients and ZSS boxes in a
terminal; this would make for easier remote admin via SSH from potentially
different client platforms.

For larger ZEO clusters, it would make a lot of sense to have consolidated
management.

If there is any interest in a framework that could provide the underlying
functionality to multiple UI front-ends, as well as automated stuff like
alerts/monitoring, I would certainly be interested in using and contributing
to development of such a beast.

Ooh! I've been thinking about something like this as well; PyQt would 
definately be the way to go. The backend should be de-coupled from the UI,
of 
course.

Getting the gears turning,
