The zpt-calendar skin is already there (I think I have a less likely
problem).  I have the following setup:

Zope-2.3.3-1
apache-1.3.22-1.7.1

In the Zope control panel:
CMF-1.2
  (CMFCore, CMFDefault, CMFTopic)
CMFCalendar
CMFTracker
CMFWiki-0.1
DCWorkflow-0.4.2
ZPT-1.4.1

and a few other zope products like squishdot and photofolder, running on
redhat 7.1 (stock kernel).

I only have the default CMF skins installed (Basic-zpt, no css, and
Nouvelle) and only the Basic skin has any zpt stuff defined.  It looks
like this:

Basic: custom, zpt_calendar, zpt_wiki, zpt_topic, zpt_content,
zpt_generic, zpt_control, wiki, topic, calendar, content, generic,
control, Images

No CSS: no_css, custom, wiki, topic, calendar, content, generic,
control, Images

Nouvelle: nouvelle, custom, wiki, topic, calendar, content, generic,
control, Images

Isn't this correct?  Or am I missing something?  Because of the changes
in the internal CMF directory structure, I'm not sure if I upgraded CMF
correctly (ie, I may have hosed something up in the process).  Unless
you can tell me somewhere else to look, or some DTML or python method I
can tweak, I'm at a loss.  Is there any hope for the clueless, or do I
have to re-install CMF (and nuke my existing portals)? :-(

Or maybe I screwed up the Calendar install - here's what I did:

I added the calendarDisplay folder to the root of my portal (this is a
new portal, created after the update to CMF-1.2).  I ran the install
script, which created the calendar and zpt_calendar folders under the
portal_skins folder, and filled them with the graphics and event_view
files.  I added the calendar, dateMunger, and monthRange scripts to the
calendarDisplay folder.  I couldn't see anything until I added an
index_html file to this folder containing:

<dtml-with calendarDisplay>
<dtml-var calendar>
</dtml-with>

and then I modified the standard_topbar files (ie, making custom copies
in the custom folder) to add a calendar link to the navbar:

    ...
    <a href="&dtml-portal_url;/recent_news">news</a>&nbsp;
    <a href="&dtml-portal_url;/calendarDisplay">calendar</a>&nbsp;
    <a href="&dtml-portal_url;/search_form">search</a>
    ...

The Calendar seems to display fine in the old (non-zpt) portal for all
skins.  It also displays fine in the new portal with every skin except
for the zpt-based skin.  So I guess I talked myself out of screwing up
the install of the calendar stuff, otherwise it probably wouldn't work
at all.

I could really some help here, since I have just the barest inkling of
how zope and CMF work in the first place.  Please?

Thanks in advance, Steve
