Evan Simpson sent me a fix for publishing a sub-folder, and I have ported that fix to 2.0.0a3 . Do not apply this patch naively, I've tested it once and I'm not at all familliar with the internals of Zope. It's posted here for discussion. The Apache rewrite rule is changed to add ZOPE_OMIT_STEPS=1 to the environment. The patch makes ZPublisher chop as many initial pathname elements as specified in ZOPE_OMIT_STEPS.
