The new ziwethey?
Some comments were made long ago that ziwethey would be rewritten in something other than Zope. Anything to report? (I entirely understand if things are on the third back burner, just wanted to know before I started looking at the source code.)

Re: The new ziwethey?
I started on a PHP version shortly before I got hired. The code is available under the Source link. It's quite unfinished, and I lack the time right now to do anything about it.
Additionally, I discovered that I really loathe PHP, so I wouldn't expect to find the motivation to finish that version very soon. ;-)

A giggle still lurks in my gut. (wipes eyes) Seriously, what would you rewrite this excellent example of programming in? (I do not think "excellent programming" is an exaggeration given the dufoids at Infoworld.) (actually if all software were written this well, a lot of us would be out of business.) (I haven't seen one burp, hiccup, or puke since I've been here! Geez, looking at code I've done, I'm embarrassed.)

Knowing Scott?
I'd say a PostScript version.
Or sed. Or gawk. Or COBOL.

Re: Knowing Scott?
Peter, smack slap slap
Surely he wouldn't rewrite it in sed or Cobol. But gawk.... hmmmmmm....

Anything besides PHP
Probably Python with some sort of web toolkit, or maybe Turbine/Velocity.

Aha, gotcha. Here's URLs, for anyone else who wants to know:
[link|http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/index.html|[link|http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/index.html|http://jakarta.apac...e/index.html]]
[link|http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/index.html|[link|http://jakarta.apache.org/velocity/index.html|http://jakarta.apac...y/index.html]]
But those two were down when I tried to access them right now. These two seem to work:

I was going flagellate myself doing it.
... by using [link|http://unicon.sourceforge.net/|Unicon]. I got [link|http://yceran.org/qompose/|side-tracked], but will probably come back to it once I make ODBC work in Unicon.
