Re: [Openflow-dev] introduction

[<jm...@so...>]

Hello,

as far as I know, Openflow is the only activity based openflow system for
Zope.
You know that python is a wonderfull "glue system", and zope is a
wonderfull TTW, DATABASE, and mutiplatform  developping system, you can
have very good results very simply.

So what a better platform for a workflow than Zope ? It is the best ! :-)

Icube is doing a great job, and I hope they will have many benefits with
Openflow. For the moment I am still using an old version of Openflow, but
I hope to upgrade soon (I need some of the new features for a module).

My tests with Openflow 0.4: it is working well. It is "difficult" to not
have it working well, even if you "touch things", it is over ZODB with
Zope!

With the latest Openflow, It is harder to understand the code, it is more
complicated, but nicer and more powerfull.

So if you are a Wizard (not like me), the result will be even better !!
