I guess so. I'm still working on "tidying" up what can loosely be termed  
as the narrative documentation. Still in the clean-up phase but should get  
this done this week.

@ Jens will we be able to point the release to a docs page on Zope.org?

I had a go at autogenerating the api documentation but failed miserably -  
lots of empty pages got generated because Sphinx had trouble with import  
paths. Does anyone know the appropriate incantations for this?

Okay. I guess the key issue is making working with Zope-3 skins easier.  
I'd like to have a different CMFDefault profile that did without CMF skins  
(yes, I do appreciate the irony), ie. the ability to jetison PythonScripts  
et al. CMFCalendar won't work with that because of the explicit dependency  
upon the CMF skin layer. Certainly a big enough change not to be in 2.3.
