 Introduction

-  to use Zope components separately, Bobo hackers, people who
-  want to use their own Python, and people who work on obscure
-  platforms because they love to compile everything from source.

-  If you just want to use Zope easily and aren't a programmer
-  the binary release will probably suit you better.  All are

 Installing Zope
 
-  Follow the instructions in doc/INSTALL.txt to install Zope. 
-
-Using Zope Components Separately
-
-  Zope consists of many Python packages which can be profitably
-  used by themselves. For example you will find all your old friends
-  from Bobo here:
-
-    * ZPublisher - A packagized version of the Bobo ORB you know and
-      love.
-
-    * DocumentTemplate - This package includes cDocumentTemplate which
-      speeds things up considerably.
-
-    * BoboPOS - This is NOT ZODB 3. It a version of BoboPOS2 which
-      include c code to make things faster.
-
-  You can find most of these packages in the lib/python directory. If
-  you poke around, you might find other goodies too, like StructuredText.
-
-  ZPublisher and DocumentTemplate are also available separately.
+  Follow the instructions in doc/INSTALL.txt to install Zope.
 
 Notes
 
   * Zope requires Python 2.1.
