Hi
I was wondering if I could install the new beta over and over the same installation or if I must uninstall old version for installing new version (in this case will I lose my current project) ?
Answering several questions at once... all the data in your Zope site is stored in a file called Data.fs. By copying this file into another directory, removing Zope, installing the new one and then replacing Data.fs you can preserve your data between upgrades.
Careful about installed Products - those live down on {ZOPE_HOME}/lib/python/Products and can make your Data.fs hard to read in the new install, if the correct Product isn't available.
