Some fixes where checked in just now. If you have the opportunity, maybe 
you could checkout the grokproject trunk, buildout it and use the 
`./bin/grokproject` command to create a new project? Log files should be 
placed in `./var/log` now consistently now.


BTW, I removed the `log` and `data` parts from the generated 
buildout.cfg file. There were still there from quite a while ago, when 
we wanted to prevent accidental data loss. I think we can by now 
consider the deprecation period over, right?


kind regards,
