Hi everybody,

I am very happy to announce the Five project, a Zope 2 product that
allows you to integrate Zope 3 technologies into Zope 2, today.

What is Five?
=============

Five is a Zope 2 product that integrates Zope 3 functionality into Zope
2. Five right now allows you to use the following Zope 3 technologies in
Zope 2:

   * Zope 3 interfaces

   * adapters

   * pages (views), including skins and layers.

   * ZCML

It is possible to add Zope 3 style views to your own Zope 2 objects, or
to existing ones, even normal Folders!

Five works with a straight Zope 2.7 installation, as long as Zope 3 has
been installed. See Five's INSTALL.txt for more information on how to
set it up.

We're in the process of evaluating lots more Zope 3 technologies for
integration into Zope 2. This is the right moment for interested Zope 2
and Zope 3 developers to jump in. We're looking for cooperation between
different Zope 2 projects so that this can be a foundational system for
us all.

Where to find it?
==================

Five is kindly hosted on codespeak.net, and is part of the larger "Zope
3 Base" project that offers an approachable area for developers of Zope
3 related software.
