buildouts, sure. However Plone 3.0 releases are not always buildout based: 
there is a large installed base who do not use buildout but use plain Zope 
instances and rely on a Plone tarball which contains everything unpacked. 
The most popupar way by far to install by Plone is the Windows installer, 
which is not buildout based. All the tools to create that tarball and the 
current installres assume that we either have an egg or a plain product release.
