I do not believe there is any meaningful group of people who would be catastrophically affected by not having this transition become part of the ZTK's responsibilities. >> You keep asserting a "backward compatibility problem," but haven't >> defended it with any evidence.

I just don't grok (pun intended) any of these assertions that the ZTK has any responsibility for providing a stepping stone for zope.app.*-package users. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (Darwin) iEYEARECAAYFAks6kAAACgkQRAx5nvEhZLLo9ACfWKWew8mTwkW5DFRx4E9UCwQJ nPQAoI6s1s5D3IiOC3bHSGJibNDwQUUs =ARZn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - [email protected] https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
