During this short time two people on irc wondered why they couldn't  
use grok
or grokproject.

I think it would be good if we could make grok and grokproject not  
depend on
grok.zope.org being available. Perhaps we could add the latest  
versions.cfg to
grokproject when we do a grok release? Then the extends line in  
buildout.cfg
can use this versions-0.13.2.cfg.

If someone wants to upgrade their app from 0.13 to 0.14 they could for  
instance
run "grokproject --upgrade-to=0.14" and a new versions-0.14.cfg would be
downloaded and the extends line in buildout.cfg would be updated.

Just a thought. It's nice to get rid of a single point of failure.
