Hi zopistas,

I often use Portable Hole, but it depdends on the absolute URL from Zope
root, not virtual root. Not problems if you use it in "live" but if you
archive them and backed up after while to another folder name than
original, it is not possible to import that zexp.

Comparison with LinkedFolder (use courier font please):

---------------------------------------------------------
             PortableHole          LinkedFolder
---------------------------------------------------------
Linked URL   URLa                  URLb
---------------------------------------------------------
rendering    URL with data from    URL with data from
             URLb and parent&sub   URLa and their    
             folders was get       parent&sub-folders
             from URL           
---------------------------------------------------------
URL:          /www/site/folder/        
URLa:         /www/site/linkedfolder/  
URLb:         ../linkedfolder          
VHM mapping:  site.com/www/site/
---------------------------------------------------------

Does somebody have patch for PortableHole to remove needs absolute paths
from zope root or patch for Linked Folder to have same rendering as
portable Hole? 
Or does somebody know other similar product that brings you folder content
to another place.

Many thanks, JL.
