[Zope] ANNOUNCE: ZopeMake 1.0

[Farrell, Troy]

Yes.  ZopeMake uses ZClient to allow commandline scripting of imports and
exports, but cannot import .zexp files that are not on the file system.
I've been thinking about 2 of Zope's "problems" (security features) lately
and I've almost hit some solutions.
<Ask DC to turn a deaf ear>
I wonder (I haven't looked) how difficult it would be to patch zope so it
can import .zexp files that are already in ZODB, so that I can
manage_addFile a .zexp file and then manage_importObjectFromZODB.  I was
thinking about using LocalFS for this, but I don't think LFS is deployed far
and wide enough for this.  Then again, if we get a solution for this, more
people might use LocalFS.  I might try to write the code if it sounds
doable.  It might be nice.

Hmmm, does this suffer from the same security implications that are the
reason behind DC not implementing TTW import of .zexp's?

cheers,
