Dev documentation feedback

Hi all,

Just got these notes from a friend who tried to learn Plone. I will record
them here for the future purposes.


What I'd like to see covered is:
* what is the relationship between Plone and Zope
* to what extent can bare Zope be used in Plone
* how does Plone handle an incoming request (is this called acquisition?) -
compare this: http://web2py.com/book/default/chapter/04#Dispatching (and if
it's just Zope, then a pointer to the Zope details).
* what is registration, why and how.
* interfaces (I actually have an idea about interfaces from java, but the
concept should be in a beginners tute)
* what are main add ons that people use/recommend (eg z3c.form etc) and what
they're good for
* what parts of plone are now bad practice and should be avoided.
* tools like Clouseau and DocFinderTab.

While I think details on ZopeSkel, paster etc are important, they can have
(and do have) stand alone tutorials. I'd rather have something that explains
how the pieces fit together conceptually.
