I've downloaded the sample and installed it... but what is the mechanism that I use to plug it into the mix? What type is the new item that I add to activate it... Also, I expect that once it is grafted in (say as "sample", that I'd get to it via: "http://mysite.com:9673/sample" right?
I assume you are talking about the sample product for people who want to learn the Zope Product API. Correct? If so, they you want to ungzip and untar it inside the Zope directory. Then shutdown and restart Zope. Now the sample product should appear in the add list on the management screens. That's all the installation you need to do. This process is exactly the same for all Zope products. Installing a Product just makes that product available to be created with the management interface. It does not actually create any instances in your object hierarchy. Does this answer your question? -Amos
