Wow, I really opened Pandora's box. ;)
The thread about "utility" vs "service" has gotten so big that
it's too hard comment, IMO. Can we focus on the glossary at:
http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/ComponentArchitecture/Glossary
??? Let's work these definitions and thn pring other descriptions in
sync.
I tried to clarify the definitions in the glossary based on the discussion
in the thread. I doubt it's clear enough. :)
I also added links to:
http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/ComponentArchitecture/DifferencesBetweenServicesAndUtilities
which also tried to explain the differences.
Let's move the questions and comments to the glossary so we can try to get
to closure on this.
