As a small aside to this topic, I just ran the (entire?) suite of unit tests - 2586 of them - with Zope2.7.2 using an ActivePython2.3.2 binary install (pretty much out of the box) on WinXP. I realize this isn't everything as far as a full compatibility assessment goes - but nothing erred.

Unfortunately, there are many reasons why there's this need to use at least a system Python installation, and the main one is maybe that many Python add-ons distributed as binary installers require the system-registered version, while they can't recognize Zope's one.
From that perspective, current stable Zope 2.7.2 still has issues that previous releases didn't use to have.

For Zope on Windows, I'd recommend just usingthe Zope binary installer
for windows and not trying to do anything clever ;-)
cheers,
