The binary releases for Zope 2.5.1b2 contain the Python 2.1.3 final 
release. Users of the Zope source release should note that Python 2.1.3 
is now the required platform. Python 2.1.3 includes a fix to an issue 
that could cause crashes in Zope.

The Linux binary is linked against RedHat 5.2 libraries; users of more 
recent distributions are encouraged to install the source release 
instead of the binary release of Zope.

Particular features of interest in Zope 2.5.1 beta 2:
