Hello all,

This week saw the first burst of development on Zope Studio. In CVS is now a
skeleton for the main user interface, with a working mini object browser that
will enable you to browse a Zope server, and filter on object meta types.

Because of recent developments on Mozilla, you will need a recent nightly for
taking a look at Zope Studio. Often, checkins will contain XUL code that will
not work on a nightly Moz build older than the date of the checkin. You have
been warned.

Speaking of developments: We have been able to net some of the Mozilla
developers on IRC, getting them to comment on the future directions of their
respective modules. There are lots of new things afoot: RDF support in Mozilla
will move closer to supporting the actual W3C standard, so the RDF Zope emits
might actually be useful for something besides Zope Studio. Also, support for
XML requests is planned. This would make XML-RPC much easier in Mozilla.

In the mean time I have kept on finding and reporting bugs to Bugzilla. As
always, the zopestudio keyword points the way. And yes, Zope Studio will get a
tracker as well. We should, anyway =).
