G'day, 
 
    Zope Weekly News is a digest of some of the useful and interesting 
    events which have occurred on the various Zope mailing lists and the 
    Zope.org site.  It is published each Wednesday evening. 
 
    Any opinions contained in the Zope Weekly News are those of the 
    chronicler exclusively. 
 
 
Announcements 
 
  * Amos Lattier <amos@digicool.com> put out a call for FastCGI 
    problems.  Amos is revisiting FastCGI support, so the more you 
    complain the better it will be.

  * Paul Everitt <paul@digicool.com> has alerted everyone to the 
    latest issue of Linux Magazine, which contains an article "Gold 
    Rush: Venture Capitalists Discover Linux".  The article talks 
    about Digital Creations and Hadar Pedhazur at length.

Updates 
 
  * "htrd" posted an update to his NTUserFolder product.  It 
    authenticates Zope users from NT user accounts.  It only runs on 
    Windows NT.  The latest release is 1.3.

  * "phd" has updated mod_pcgi2 several times this week.  mod_pcgi2 
    moves PGCI's calling code into Apache's process to eliminate the 
    so-called "fork tax".  This makes requests more responsive.  The 
    latest version is 0.1.2.

    language.

    presently underway about the relative merits of mod_pcgi2, vanilla 
    PCGI and FastCGI.
