David and Jim,
As far as I can determine from this thread (I have some difficulty
following parts of David's long mail as well) you two are agreeing. :)
Jim, is it correct that you'd like the zope 3 recipe to grow an option
to auto-construct a site.zcml based on egg dependencies? I think David
perhaps has the impression that since this doesn't exist *yet*, it is
not going to be created.
Tres's argument is that since there is no system to override ZCML
auto-inclusion of configuration should not be implemented yet. But Jim
seems to disagree with this (and I do too).
I also don't understand David's problem with buildout times. The option
-N helps a lot. Jim, is there anything to say for actually making -N the
default behavior of buildout?
Regards,
Martijn
