[Zope-dev] config file changes made to 2.7 branch and head

The 2.7 branch and HEAD have been changed so that they require databases
to be present in the config file to start properly.  Previous 2.7 betas
did not require this; in fact, there were no databases specified in the
default zope.conf file, and Zope guessed at what the defaults were. 
Since guessing this way is bad, I've changed it to require explicit
database statements in the config.

To ensure that your 2.7 or HEAD checkouts start properly, place the
following in your config file (or just uncomment it from the default
config file):

<zodb_db main>
    # Main FileStorage database
    <filestorage>
      path $INSTANCE/var/Data.fs
    </filestorage>
    mount-point /
</zodb_db>

<zodb_db temporary>
    # Temporary storage database (for sessions)
    <temporarystorage>
      name temporary storage for sessioning
    </temporarystorage>
    mount-point /temp_folder
    container-class Products.TemporaryFolder.TemporaryContainer
</zodb_db>
