[Zope] First Project

[Koch Marc]

Thank you,

...for your tip with the PARENTS[0].objectValues('File')

Please let me ask your advice on how to realize the following:

I would like to build an application for handling development requests.
These requests should be submitted by our end-users through our Intranet to
my team. We then look at each new request and dispatch it to one or more
development team for approval (or rejection). At this stage:
- The end-user should be able to see that his request has been dispatched
- The concerned development team(s) should see that there is a new request,
they could look at it and accept it or reject it and give a comment
When all the teams have replied, my team would add a summarized comment to
the request and the end-user should be able to see this. At this point, the
request handling for my team is at its end.

Requests should be submitted by a Web-Form and may contain an arbitrary file
(eg. Word Document).
The end-user and the development team should see only what they are
concerned with.
My team needs a global overview.

Do I need a database or would basic Zope objects work? Where to begin? I
feel that there should be a 'Request' object (document or method?) with a
few methods for adding, dispatching, ...

Thanks for any advice
