I prefer that, too. Maybe we can show the difference with the app
names: Use "herdexample" vs. "grokstar". Note that I used a copy of
bootstrap.py, not the svn:externals like in other apps (I like to
minimize externals to foreign repositories in my own repositories).

I would like to check in the code to svn.zope.org myself, but
unfortunately I have not checkin rights (only to codespeak). I really
need this "how to become a Zope contributor" Martijn mentioned in the
"various balls" mail...

Slightly off topic: Is there a solution to this error message?

"The required version of setuptools (>=0.6c7) is not available, and
can't be installed while this script is running. Please install
 a more recent version first.

(Currently using setuptools 0.6c6 (/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-
packages/setuptools-0.6c6-py2.4.egg))"

This confused my colleages and is not necessary I think - the
bootstrap.py should test the setuptools version before running it.

Cheers,
