Tons of people av information about zope or anything that might help
you. What exactly is the scope of the thesis? Can you give any specific

Sorry for the big delay --
Baymountain largely solved this for us, but it involves running a kernel >=
2.4.0 and using properly compiled libraries. I believe baymountain got the
appropriate libraries in RPM format from the beowulf project.
Hope that helps,

Hi Andy - page history should require only a suitably up-to-date zope

Or maybe do what Pine (an email client) does: the first time you use it,
it asks you if you would like to send an anonymous email to the Pine
development team at the University of Washington in Seattle, just so the
developers can get a general idea of how many people are using it.

That sounds good, too. How does the pine system work? Can it send system
data (OS, version, etc.) and can it identify repeat emails from the same
users (say, if someone reinstalls)? If the pine model is really bare bones,
perhaps user's could choose between three options: (1) don't send anything
to zope.org; (2) send an anonymous email identifying the version of Zope
used; (3) register with Zope.org through a web-based form at zope.org or an
emailable form.

Yikes! On second thought, if we suggested anything like this using a
poll, a lot of people would come unglued. The idea works for Pine because
Pine is maintained by a bunch of volunteers. It would be a disaster for
Zope, being maintained by a for-profit company. Sorry I suggested it.

Howdy folks. I've been mulling over an idea that I think might fly with
privacy people, provide real value for end users, and real value for
zope.org's goal of estimating the size of the zope universe.
Imagine if the future of Zope downloads was to get the basics of the
binary setup for your platform. The first login provided a
configuration screen that asked for a couple of things:
1) The login name for your Zope.org account.
2) The "name" of the site that you're configuring and an optional
description.
Clicking "Next" connects to your Zope.org member folder, and creates a
new "site" in a "sites" folder. The user gets back a page that shows
all the updates and new packages available for install. You might also
be given an option to download documentation updates.
Of course this presumes that, in the future, Zope is able to do "ZSync"
types of operations on Zope products. But presuming that, I think this
would give a pretty seriously attractive reason to use the facility. We
could increase the value by giving people the option to be emailed when
the packages they were using were updated.
The only thing that would be "centralized" is the label that you chose
for your site and the packages/revisions that you installed. And tying
it to your zope.org membership simply ties it to a system of privacy
that people are already used to.
Thoughts?

These things are a two way street, if you dont provide some value to both
parties it gets ignored and or makes people unhappy. Logging in to Zope.org
to download Zope doesnt appeal, it would add a barrier into the download and
doesnt provide a lot of value to me. Perhaps there are more options you can
add to that...
Now if I could upload a configuration of my Zope, its products and such to
Zope.org and get notified when things get changed and synced down new
products (you know thats my hobby horse) you will get a lot of interest.
Plus you will get more relevant stats. This then gives you lots of nice
numbers from how many people download Zope, to how many use it, what
products people use a lot and so on.
Just be careful to anonymize those numbers of course. BTW you of course keep
careful track to all the referers to www.zope.org, www.zope.org/Credits
(going to update those credits?) (from the Zope attribution button) :)
Cheers.

Well,
I assume it funnels through Ethan, then possibly off to whomever is the
support channel; I dunno.

These things are a two way street, if you dont provide some value to
both parties it gets ignored and or makes people unhappy. Logging in to
Zope.org to download Zope doesnt appeal, it would add a barrier into the
download and doesnt provide a lot of value to me. Perhaps there are more
options you can add to that...

I think that if you offer people options, most will provide a fair
amount of information. Of course, the greater degree of automation, the
greater response rate you'll get. Maybe something like this (but
obviously better worded) during installation would suffice:
[ ] Send information about my installation to Zope.org and inform me
about product updates and patches.*
[ ] Send information about my installation to Zope.org, but DON'T send
me information about product updates and patches.*
[ ] DON'T send any information to Zope.org
* Any information sent to Zope.org will only be used to help generate
anonymous statistics about the number and types of Zope installations
out there. If you want to see the information that would be sent to
Zope.org, click here.
If the person selected the first option, they would enter an email
address as well.

Subject: [ZWeb] viewing newsgroups
Message-ID:
Hi,
I am trying to use a web front end to view already existing newsgroups on an
nntp server. I was wondering if there are
any zope products out there that will do this for me. I do not need it to
act as a mail server or anything like this. I had a quick look at zopeGUM
but this seems to be saying that it *will* provide something that may do
this for me. Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.
PS - is this the correct/best place to ask this question?
Thanks,
Joe.

I don't think so, but I'm not certain.

A better place is the zope list:

hope that helps,
