[quills-dev] tim2p-towards-1.7 branch progress

Hi all,


I thought I'd fill you in on my progress today with the 
tim2p-towards-1.7 branch.

First, the buildout for this is now at 
<http://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/Quills/bundles/quills-buildout/branches/tim2p-towards-1.7>.

Second, I made some decent progress on getting more tests to pass.  This 
was largely a process of test refactoring and adjustment as many of the 
browser tests that we had were too Products.Quills-specific.

The outcome of this is that we are now down to two failing tests:


   1. The 'Add Comment' button never gets shown for 
Documents-masquerading-as-weblogentries when traversed to via the 
transient archive hierarchy that we construct.  I guess this is 
something to do with how viewlets get looked up, but I'm afraid I have 
no knowledge of that.  Does anybody here understand these things?

   2. Anonymous views of a Folder-masquerading-as-a-weblog appear to 
throw an Unauthorized exception.  I've run out of time to track this 
down, but I'm sure it'll be trivial for someone to do this.


That said, there is one other issue that would prohibit a release of the 
QuillsEnabled code.  At the moment, weblog portlets do not get rendered 
when viewing weblog entries.  There are technical reasons for this that 
I'd be delighted to discuss with anybody interested.  I haven't figured 
out how to make this work yet.


Cheers,


Tim
