Yes, our main concern is compatibility with the existing system: for instance, one constraint is the MS SQL database. Having said that, we would like to port parts of a Zope application to the new framework, but I do not expect this to be particularly difficult for the parts we want to migrate since they are not really using Zope features. Other parts instead would require a very substantial rewrite so for the moment I think they will stay in Zope. Michele Simionato -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
