[Zope] Re: LocalFS 1.3 for Zope2.7.1 released

[Nate Aune]

Hi Andreas,

I'm glad to hear that you've updated LocalFS to serve static files more 
efficiently. Perhaps using your LocalFS, Zope can stream large MP3 files 
after all?

I noticed on the downloads page (http://www.easyleading.org/Downloads/), 
that you have a product called PloneSingleLocalFS which I assume 
implements LocalFS in a Plone site.

I downloaded this product and the README stated that LocalFS 1.4-andreas 
is a required product. However, your download page only shows LocalFS 
1.3-andreas as available.

I went ahead and tried to install PloneSingleLocalFS using LocalFS 
1.3-andreas, but when I tried to add a new 'plonesinglelocalfolder' 
item, a dialog box appeared asking me to login. I used my manager un/pw, 
but the box kept re-appearing.

I suspect that it is because I am trying to use it with the older 
version of LocalFS. Will you make LocalFS 1.4-andreas available for 
download?

Thanks,
Nate
