Actually, it looks like that's the cache path. So, for some reason,  
during the extraction of the egg, the other schema files do not get get  
extracted and cached, despite the fact that they are packacked in the  
egg. Sounds like this might actually be a question for Phillip Eby, and  
maybe not a problem with ZConfig...

Phillip, when I unzip the egg, and look in the conf directory,  
everything is there:

cocwsx01:oubiwann 07:44:48 $ ls -al conf/
total 40
drwxr-xr-x   7 oubiwann  wheel   238 14 Nov 07:44 .
drwxr-xr-x  10 oubiwann  wheel   340 14 Nov 07:44 ..

-rw-r--r--   1 oubiwann  wheel  3678 14 Nov 07:19 schema.xml

However, when pkg_resources._extract_resource fires off, they don't get  
extracted:

cocwsx01:oubiwann 07:50:54 $ ls -al  
~/.python-eggs/PyMonitor-0.3.2-py2.3.egg-tmp/conf
total 16
drwxr-xr-x  4 oubiwann  oubiwann   136 14 Nov 07:45 .

-rw-------  1 oubiwann  oubiwann  3678 14 Nov 07:19 schema.xml

Looking at the source, if size and stamp match, they're not supposed to  
get extracted... I'm not really sure where to look next; is this a  
problem with setuptools? Or with ZConfig? Or me?!

Thanks,
