Hybrid Storage Models. Jon Udell: Hybrid Storage Models "The ExtFile, Product, of more recent vintage, takes a more granular approach. It implements plug-in replacements for Zope's native File and Image objects. These alternate versions, ExtFile and ExtImage, must be individually created — you can't just point Zope at /var/www and have it automagically encapsulate what it finds there. Once you do create an ExtFile or an ExtImage, though, it comes much closer to being a real Zope object, which happens to store its data on the filesystem rather than in ZODB. If the Zope pathname /images/picture.jpg refers to a picture of a horse stored in /var/www/images/picture.jpg, then you can associate Zope metadata (Category: Horses) with that external image. What's more, you can cut the image from one Zope folder and paste it into another, or delete the image and then undo the delete operation. The files themselves are kept in a filesystem repository which is, by default, /var/reposit." [ZopeNewbies] - Yet another cool Zope product!

EFF Analysis Of The Provisions Of The USA PATRIOT Act - Be careful what you say online and what you search for online, Big Brother can now legally listen and use it against you no matter how innocent you are! This is yet another Sept. 11 over-reaction. The answer of course is to erase inequality and conflict in the world. Far easier said than done!
