[Zope] CUF, XUF, and the Redmond Axis of Evil

[darrylc]

Thank you, Dieter.

Sorry for writing to your directly on this, but I am in a bit of a time
crunch and I am trying to sell zope to my managers. But if it this is not
going to work with IE it is a show-stopper. I have writttn Jens V. (author
of CUF) also, but he could offer no help as he is a Mac/UNIX guy too. So
am I, but somehow I get stuck aiding the unwashed Windows massess.

I a am Galeon fan myself, but unfortunately most of the people hitting my
site are going to be using the evil, but pervasive, IE.

Thanks for your comment.
