This is not a very helpful response, in my opinion. I'm a relative newbie
to Zope myself and I find it difficult to locate and navigate simple API
documentation. Yes, there's this:
http://www.zope.org/Documentation/ZopeBook/AppendixB.stx
But please tell me how someone can quickly scratch this itch, "What are the
attributes of REQUEST.SESSION?"
Where's an index to the API reference? Compare the usability of the above
to this:
http://www.python.org/doc/current/modindex.html
In addition, as far as I can tell, Zope lacks the easy
interactive/introspection of Python. Of course, I'm still learning and I
invite and encourage you to show me the error of my ways.
Cheers,
