[Zope] [Ann] Another Zope Book

[Chris McDonough]

This sounds like a good idea, IMHO.  The Zope Book doesn't go into much
detail about technologies outside Zope.  It sounds like your book would,
and this would be a good thing.

> This will contain:
>   Concepts: HTTP, HTML, Zope, Databases, JavaScript, ...
>   Components: catalogs, sessions, topics, news, discussions,
> 	      stores, mails, LoginManager, customizers, workflows, ...
>   Programming: building your own components (ZClasses and
>                Product API)

> There will be some overlap with the official Zope book.

>   I will not be complete about Zope. I will just

>   for 85 per cent of the applications.
> 
>   I will cover aspects of dynamic Web publishing not
>   directly related to Zope such as e.g. the basics of
>   HTTP requests and HTML form processing.
> 
>   I will mainly stay near the concrete example dynamic
>   WebSite.

> Do you feel, it is worth persuing or redantant in view of the
