"Medium"?

"MEDIUM"??

This is serious. Come on, at least tell us first time Zope'ers _HOW_ to install this system?

What file do I download to turn this .tar.gz tarball into an installed, functioning system on my XP box?

Why does the download page not have a hotfix that contains a working installer?

The first entry mentions that there is an installer on the 2.7 branch, but it doesn't mention if it will work with 2.6; since the 2.7 branch is marked as unstable, developmental, this isn't a trivial concern.

I'm not new to computers, or development. I used to use WebObjects (and EOF) 4.5 a lot; I'm just noticing that the marketplace seems to be switching to python and zope, and I'm trying to keep up with the ever changing workplace. But I've never worked with either Python or Zope before, and now I'm trying to get this up and running.

Medium?

This completely prevents the program from working at all! That's my definition of a priority 1 emergency.

The Windows installer (.exe) is missing from the download area for version 2.6.  The .exe is available for 2.7.
