[Zope-dev] ZopeCTL from debian sid could it be included?

[Chris McDonough]

Hi kosh,

We discussed this a bit on the zope-dev list
(http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/1677044).  The result was
that Luca will likely update his zope controller for 2.7 and it will be
available for debian, but it will not be included in Zope.  It's a nifty
system, but it is a bit too platform-specific for general use.
