CVS as of then (two weeks back, I guess). I'm assuming it should work in the
beta.

For some reason that is unknown to me, if you create a distribution and
install it in a different Zope, the Distribution tab for the product is
simply not there. So, someone could make changes to the product, but they
cannot make a new Distribution based on those changes. (They should be able
to Export the product, though.)
