Dear fellow Zopers,

The Mobile Data market is about to explode, capitalizing on the huge
growth that mobile phone operators have enjoyed over the past few years.
In order to make a play in this market you need to have both internet
and wireless access to the content, i.e. internet browser and wap
browser access.

There is already an OpenSource WAP gateway, but very few HTTP and WML
servers. Zope would be ideal for this task as it could serve up the
content in different forms depending on the type of browser or access
device used.

I would like to know if anyone has or is working on a WAP (Wireless
Application Protocol) interface for Zope? Today most WAP browsers use
WML, but it looks like this may move toward XML soon.

If you want to get Zope into the Telco space big time this would be a
good way to start.

Regards
Brendon
