Hi Hanno,

thanks for pointing that out to me. I'd thought I was okay simply pegging  
my configuration to Zope2 = 2.12.3. Obviously, it isn't.

Still I hope there is value in providing binary windows eggs for packages  
as and when they get updated. I'm still getting used to buildout and the  
possibility of running a more aggressive configuration on my development  
system than on deployment. But it is a bit of the blind leading the blind  
and this one's wearing an eye-patch! ;-)

Charlie
