History for Party

??changed:

SteveA: Phillip, please correct me if I'm wrong here.

A Party is defined as a role or organisation.

A Party Object is an object that is meant to play a part in one or more !ZPatterns frameworks. In implementation terms, it is any Zope object that supports propertysheets.

Each framework is responsible for one (or more) of the propertysheets on a Party Object.

This is similar in principle to what !ObjectSpace are doing with their "Facets" approach to separation of concerns.

(See under the heading "Dynamic Aggregation", 1/5 of the way down the page.)

I just mention this because I worked with ObjectSpace's Voyager product for a while, and it helps me to understand new ideas in terms of familiar ideas.
