3.7.0 (2009-03-14)
Remove zope.container dependency, as contained principals didn’t make any sense, since PrincipalRegistry never provided IContainer. Also, zope.container pulls a number dependencies, that are not needed for non-persistent principal registry (like, ZCML, for example).
Set __name__ and __parent__ by hand to provide some backward-compatibility and to save a pointer to registry from principal objects.
Initial release. This package was split from zope.app.security as a part of the refactoring process to provide global principal registry without extra dependencies.
