Thanks, Kapil.

I spent a day on it, and never got past error pages.  Maybe my problem 
was starting with a zopeproject.

Anyway, it got me to take a good look at pylons, which I think is a 
better match for web development without ZODB.

I found I can still use adapters and utilities by using zope.component 
and zope.interface. :)

zif.sedna (newly beta2 in pypi) now has instructions for using its zope3 
database adapter with repoze.tm in pylons.
