[Zope] Grrr. No CUF anymore ...

[Terry Hancock]

I've been using Cookie User Folder for sometime now,
but I've noticed some weird behavior which I think
might be due to CUF. I went to check the website
(thinking I might upgrade or find bug reports) and
found that CUF is now "deprecated". Oh joy. :-P

CUF's deprecation announcement includes a reference
to "CookieCrumbler", which however, is not the same
thing at all.

Searching zope.org yields 28 results for "user folder"
software products.

So, what should I migrate to?

* I want cookie-based authentication, with custom login
  forms and an option to change the cookie expiration
  time from session cookies to month or year long
  cookies.  (CUF does this).

* I'm currently using a MySQL table to identify users,
  but actually handling password and access through
  CUF. Obviously, it would be nice to have the user
  folder handle this synchronization for me.  CUF
  didn't do this, but it would be nice.

* Ideally the choice I make will not also be pulled
  out from under me within six months of selecting it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
Terry
