Ok then...

I think the following issues would deserve attention:

* Installing chapter: I'm working on it and hope to finish soon (no 
really this time!)

* Maintaining chapter update

* Creating Basic Zope Applications: I've been wanting to extend and 
incorporate Jon Whiteners version but never got around to it

* Using Zope Page Templates: judging by the comments there seem to be 
some trouble spots there

* Reference: IMHO one of the trickier things, especially for the API 
Ref. because one would first have to decide what constitutes the API and 
what is simply Zope core...

* A chapter TOC: it would be great if we could have an inter-chapter 
table of contents; would greatly help navigation esp. in longer chapters 
-- I seem to recall that someone once mentioned working on such a 
feature -- Paul maybe?

* Lots of weeding out comments resp. incorporating answers

* Generating PDFs

Anything else?
