Sir,
My "objective" is only to learn the most effective way to move an older
version Zope application from one host to another with the least amount of
wasted time and effort. My question was asked of both this list AND the
address found at zope.com's contact page. I had assumed (I believe
correctly) that how to transfer Zope applications from one hosting company
to another is something that would
a) be of interest to those who subscribe to this list
b) find a knowledgable "been there, done that" answer from among this
list's readers.

It is not my intention to start a conflict (only to find answers) but I do
find it discouraging when I run into self-appointed list cops who impute
wrong motives to users or prospective users who are asking legitimate
questions. I can only hope that Mr. Barrett's response is not the most
useful that I will find from this list.

I am looking forward to finally "getting my hands dirty" with Zope (in
resolving this problem and administering the application), and hope that in
the near future I too can provide answers to those new to Zope.

digicool aka zope corporation at an email address you might find on

As a user of zope, which is why I subscribe to this list, I'm not
interested in whatever commercial problem you and your employers have.
Trying to embarrass digicool or whatever your objective was in posting to
this list is, in my opinion, out of order.
