an ecommerce shopping cart -- TavisRudd - 01 Nov 2001
eCommerce systems are funny, since they involve some simple functionality for buying stuff, and some complicated functionality for displaying and searching for items in the store -- which is actually a ContentManagementSystem, though often mistakenly called simply a "shopping cart".
I have a crude little module that actually implements just the cart, if anyone wants it. -- IanBicking - 02 Nov 2001
This was always something that people were really interested in for Zope, but which was never addressed satisfactorily. I used to subscribe to the very low traffic ZCommerce list and every now and again one would see newcomers posting questions like "Where can I get ZCommerce?" and "Is there a shopping cart for Zope?" and they would always go away disappointed. -- PaulBoddie - 05 Nov 2001
