[Zope-Coders] FYI: Zppe 2 HEAD changes coming up.

[Chris McDonough]

The Zope 2 head will be changing substantially over the next few days. 
We are going to be merging in changes from the chrism-install-branch,
which makes it possible to configure Zope using a config file.  The
branch also has ./configure; make; make install capability and makes it
easier to create an INSTANCE_HOME (an INSTANCE_HOME setup will be the
default).  For more details about features, see the document at
http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Proposals/InstallationAndConfiguration
.

The changes may prove confusing to folks used to the old way of setting
up Zope.  There won't be any detailed narrative installation
documentation in the beginning, either, but it will be fairly
straightforward.  There is also lots of new code, so this stuff has the
potential to destablize the trunk for a bit.  I will try to minimize
that potential as much as possible.
