Hi there,
Here's my line of thoughts about Zope 2 versus Zope 2 page templates for
Five:
* Five is about integrating Zope 3 technologies with Zope 2.
* Especially Zope 3 technologies Zope 2 is lacking.
* Having Zope 2 page templates, almost identical to Zope 3 page
templates, being used by Five, will make life a lot easier when
integrating Five into Zope 2-based software.
* Having configuration knobs, global or per-page, are confusing. This
means a global setting and a special five:page directive are both
confusing. Resolving a debate implementing both sounds tempting, but it
leads to bad user interface design, and Five is an interface to developers.
* So, let's go with Zope 2 page templates and make everything work.
How does that sound?
Regards,
Martijn
