Yeah, e.g. even if we never get our butts in gear to "release" it,
Chris's 2.7 version of the Zope Book is still vastly better than
the 2.6 version (which was vastly better than 2.5, etc.)

Agreed. If I had nothing else to do I would poke around in that directory

probably others too.

Sadly there's other things in doc/ that could use the attention,
and I have to get back to Real Work now.
