It's *not* for use with Archetypes. :) That's what for example Products.ATVocabularyManager is for. I just mentioned that this is a fairly common use-case in Plone, but up to now only with Archetypes, because a zope3-component type TreeVocabulary didn't exist yet. That's why I wrote this one. > On the one hand schema > are theoretically dissociated from any form library and zope.form is > already incomplete, on the other we try and avoid application-specific > requirements in the libraries. Sure. Like SimpleVocabulary, the Treevocabulary is not dependent on any form library. In my case, I use it with z3c.form, but it could also be used with for example zope.formlib or any other form library that couples with zope.schema. > All the more important to expand the > documentation so that other libraries can benefit from the plumbing. I'll see what I can do.
