[Zope] Zope Weekly News

[Tom Deprez]

Amos,

Great idea for posting this to the list too! I didn't know about lwn...
Maybe it's a good idea to place it also on the zope site?

ie. Make a tree per month and per week and drop your summaries into it?

Tom.

:Hello Zopistas:
:
:As some of you may know, I've been writing summaries of Zope list
:activity and sending them to Linux Weekly News (http://www.lwn.net/)
:each week for the past couple weeks.
:
:Since I have so much trouble keeping up with the Zope lists, I figured
:that some of you might too, and coupled with my surmise that not
:everyone reads LWN, I was led to the idea to post my summaries to the
:Zope list as well.
:
:So here's this week's summary.
:
:-Amos
:
:P.S. I'm definitely interested in feedback. Did I miss something
:important? Let me know and I'll include it in the next summary.
:

:
:It's been a pretty busy week in Zopeland. Lots of announcements, lots of
:activity on the Zope Documentation Project list, lots of questions, and
:even some answers.
:
:(Note: Unfortunately this week there is a problem with the Zope mailing
:list archive which prevents the listing of normal URLs to go along with
:all news items. This should be fixed by next week. So this week I am
:substituting egroups URLs as needed.)
:
:  * Jim Fulton, technical director at Digital Creations, and Zope guru
:number one, announced that on May 19 there will be a Zope 2.0 Alpha 1
:source release. This means we are getting closer to having a fully
:threaded Zope! The only question is whether to hack Zope that day or see
:that new movie, what's it called again...

:
:  * Beehive held the first Berlin Zope Barbecue! Not only that, but it
:was broadcast live on the net.

:
:  * Paul Everitt asked for help with work writing a short piece of Zope
:for a forth-coming O'Reilly book on Python and Windows. He also posted a
:partial implementation of a COM Method object. However, it seems that
:perhaps the turnaround time on this project is too short for much of a
:community effort.
:

:
:  * Many people discussed problems with IE and the latest Zope release.
:It looks like its an issue of HTTP headers.
:
:  http://www.egroups.com/group/zope/4732.html
:
:  * Paul Everitt made a long post about Zope on an Infoworld forum about
:open source and business and generated some interesting comments.

:  * Amos Latteier posted a rough draft of a ZClasses tutorial. Lots of
:folks are starting to use ZClasses now. Information is still scarce and
:lots of things are still changing (witness CVS activity), however more
:information is emerging and people are discovering cool things.
