I wonder if this problem is behind some of the issues with Zope 2?

I know this is all difficult, but I'd spent an hour trying to get my head around any of the stuff in
this thread and the naming thread with only very limited success...

I guess the problem is that most of us don't have enough of the picture (or time to get enough of
the picture) to really comment, and by the time it gets to a point where we can understand it in the
time we can afford to devote to it, it will have moved beyond the point where valid criticisms can
be acted on.

...or something like that :-S

Can anyone think of a solution to this?

cheers,

Chris
