The second beta is out!

The main new features of this release are the availability of binary
releases and the availability of binary Apache distributions which are
configured to work with Zope.
For enquiring minds here's the change log:
Zope 1.9 beta 2
In addition to various documentation updates, this release includes:
New Features
- Changed serve.py to accept ZopeHTTPServer command-line options.
- Added a -P option to the ZopeHTTPServer to specify a file
to contain the process ID. This allows a script to stop
the process on Unix.
- Added support for the environment variables, Z_REALM and
Z_DEBUG_MODE to set an authentication realm and to
enable debug mode.
Bugs fixed
- External methods were broken due to differences in
Python 1.4 and Python 1.5 comparison semantics.
- ZopeHTTPServer command-line environment settings
were not available in os.environ.
- Some class references were wrong in examples in the ExtensionClass
documentation.
- INSTANCE_HOME was not set correctly when the debugger was run
with a relative path to the published module.
- The #! line in the ZopeHTTPServer was hidden by the copyright
statement and didn't have the right path.
- A bug in pcgi_publisher.py caused file uploads larger than 1 MB
to fail.
Keep those bug reports and patches coming in.
Have fun!
