Have a look at repoze.kiss[1], which sits atop the refactoring of the
Zope 2 ZPublisher (repoze.obob[2]), and uses it to apply Zope2
publishing semantics to objects served from the filesystem:  The main
repoze site[3] runs using repoze.kiss, with content stored in SVN[4]:

[1] http://svn.repoze.org/repoze.kiss/trunk/

[2] http://svn.repoze.org/repoze.obob/trunk/

[3] http://repoze.org/

[4] http://svn.repoze.org/www/trunk/kiss.repoze.org/content/
