[Zope-dev] manage_options in 2.3

[Andy McKay]

Doh, I that was an email typo I would have received a syntax error (I always
run a syntax check prior to trying code, just not putting it in emails).
Anyway I checked it again and it occurs on Zope 2.2.5, so the its a not a
2.3. The problem is the [2:] which for some reason doesnt want to work, when
I thought I was accesing a simple tuple.

Sorry to bother you.
