I think it will require a huge effort to get Zope 2 working with
Python 2.5. Either:
- We need to change Zope 2 to use Zope 3's security system, or
- the RestrictedPython package will need to be reengineered to work with
the substantially changed Python compiler and many new language features.
I suspect that even Zope 3's security system will need a fair bit of work:
- We need to rework or replace the small bit of RestrictedPython we use, and
- If new Python type slots have been added, we'll need to reflect them in zope.proxy.
