[Zope-PTK] Re: PTK install

[Jens Vagelpohl]

the latest incarnation of the CMF will only run on 2.3.1b1 and higher (and
on 2.3.0 final with a one line patch). we made a deliberate decision to
require the latest zope at this point where the CMF is still in alpha stage,
rather than forcing people to change after CMF 1.0 is out.

installing and compiling zope from source is not hard at all. try
downloading the source package from zope.org at...

http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.3.1b1/Zope-2.3.x-to-2.3.1b1-src.tgz

and read the installation instructions in the "docs" subdirectory after
un[zip|tar]ring it.
