not at all, it seems that the latest snapshot seems to have been rushed, and
some things have been overlooked :/

ok, here's a partial solution

(1) delete DemoPortal from the Product Management screen

(2) copy DemoPortal.zexp from lib/python/Products/PTKDemo to import/

(3) delete lib/python/Products/DemoPortal directory

(4) from the Product management screen, import DemoPortal.zexp

(5) restart Zope

you should now be able to see "Portal" as one of the add options ;)

however, though the Portal setup Wizard works well, something goes fubar at
the last stage, and i get errors when trying to access the portal - i dont
know if this is unique to my zope server... or applies in general : in
either case, its something that i am hoping the PTK Meisters will help solve
=)
