A night of zopin' left with me some questions...

what is a jar (_p_jar) ?

does zope restrict you from doing metaprogramming with python products?
or does zope's own metaprogramming reserve some names __klass__, etc?

in Transaction.py  i see the surrogate defining methods for
__inform_commit__ and __inform_abort__, what are these for?

browsing through zpatterns i was looking at ZPatterns/Transaction.py. i
see some talk of transaction boundaries and the inability to know that a
transaction is finished, can't an object assume a transaction is over if
it has tpc_finish called on it in when its not in a subtransaction that
the transaction is over?


looking for some light
