yuppie-ordersupport-branch is still not merged into HEAD.

After giving a heads-up [1] at Zope-Dev, there started a new discussion 
if the normal Folder should have OrderSupport or if there should be an 
extra OrderedFolder. Shane, who was one of the biggest opponents of 
OrderSupport for normal Folders, declared himself 'outnumbered' [2] at 
the end of the discussion.

Brian, could you please comment on this? You ok'ed the OrderedFolder 
solution. Do you still believe this is the way to go?

I prefer to give the normal Folder OrderSupport, but I don't want to 
decide this.


If the basic question (Folder or OrderedFolder) is resolved, I'll try to 
finish the branch until Wednesday and merge it. If there is no new 
decision, I'll stick to the ok'ed proposal and merge the OrderedFolder 
solution.


Cheers,

Yuppie
