Not everybody agrees with that. But nevertheless, both approaches can learn from each other and become more similar.
Are you one of the people who doesn't agree? If so, what's your problem with buildout? Hopefully we can sort that rather than having to maintain two ways of doing things...
zope2 releases based on buildout make it very hard for distributors to package zope2. especially as zope2 requires from what i know about buildout (and that's not much), it either requires a working internet connection or a local mirror with exact versions of all required python eggs. i would highly appreciate a final release tarball which includes all required python library/module eggs. greetings, jonas
