I just uploaded a tutorial on using Storm with BFG to the BFG tutorial bin. The application is traversal-based, and uses the
storm.zope-based transaction integration, in combination with
repoze.tm2, to make for a very pleasing little CRUD app....
Announcing: Zope 4.0 project
2009/04/01
On behalf of the Zope community, I am pleased to announce the creation of the "Zope 4.0" project. After extensive discussion with the Zope wizards in conclave at PyCon 2009, the new project's website has been launched!...
Categorizing Packages: Clarifying Terms
2009/03/15
Some of the friction which comes up on the zope-dev list, apparently due to different goals, might in fact be due to some confusion in the terms we use to talk about our goals, and about the shared software we manage toward those goals. In the interests of reducing the friction, I would like to sketch
out how I am using those terms....
A well-written open letter to the Django development community on the practices which make a setuptools-based development process go more smoothly than the historical experience which soured that community on the idea....
A really nicely-done presentation analyzing the costs and tradeoffs of the "monolithic" development culture of Zope2, and recommendations for avoiding the pitfalls....

Adding Console Scripts to a Plone Buildout
2008/09/10
In a straight 'setupttools'-based application, adding one or more
console scripts is straightforward: you just declare them in the
'setup.py', and set setuptools build them for you. However, when
using 'zc.buildout' for Plone 3.0.x or 3.1.x, you have to arrange to
get the non-eggified Zope2 products on the path, which is not easy.
This recipe works for me....
More on repoze.urispace
2008/09/03
I blogged yesterday about the fact that I had docs online
for the repoze.urispace package, but didn't do much to motivate
readers' interest: repoze.urispace should be interesting if you have
an application which needs policies which vary based on "where" in
the site the request is addressed. Examples might include: fine-
grained security, theme selection, caching policies, etc....
Docs online for new repoze.urispace package
2008/08/30
I have uploaded Sphinxified documentation for repoze.urispace, a
library package which implements most of the W3C URISpace spec
for use in WSGI middleware. I'm planning to use it to select
themes and rulesets for Deliverance based on the URI; other uses
might include setting caching headers, or doing some flavor of
"declarative security" in middleware.

zc.buildout vs. "plain" setuptools

My Two Cents
2008/02/06
I'd like to thank the Plone Summit organizers for inviting
me to the summit, even though I decided not to go (I just got back
from a week in Japan, and **boy** are my arms tired)....
New setuptools plugin: eggtestinfo 0.2
2007/11/16
I have released version 0.2 of a setuptools plugin to the Cheeseshop. When installed, the plugin extends the '.egg-info' generation done by many setup commands to create a new file, 'test_info.txt', which captures the data used by the 'setup.py test' command....
