Five 0.1 released (Zope 3 in Zope 2)
Five allows you to use the following Zope 3 technologies in Zope 2:
- Zope 3 interfaces
- adapters
- pages (views), including skins and layers
- ZCML, including things like Zope 2 security declarations from ZCML
It is possible to add Zope 3 style views to your own Zope 2 objects, or to existing ones, even normal Folders! See here for a more extensive list of Five features.
Five 0.1 allows you to use Zope X3 3.0.0b2 technologies in a straight Zope 2.7 installation. See Five's INSTALL.txt for more information on how to set it up.
Five is part of the Zope 3 Base project, which aims to offer an approachable area for the developers of Zope 3 related software.
