[Zope] The best way

[Garito]

Hi!
Thanks Martijn and Matt for your ideas!
@Matt: can you explain with more detail the question about
REQUEST.response.write()? If the written content is as long as a file like
prototype is not a very heavy solution?

The contents of the zexp file are only js files and images (static content)
and I'm using Zope2

What about the functionality of the freemind view? What do you think about?

Thanks!
