[Zope] re: zope outputs static site

[Dr. Ross Lazarus]

I have code which outputs a zope site as a static "mirror". There are
some real tricky issues like finding images. 

We use it here regularly since I'm not yet willing to serve from zope -
so I construct my site dynamically and serve it as static html from
apache.

If you're willing to test (and that means let me know what happens !),
contact me directly please. 

I have previously made it available but although about 30 people snarfed
the files, not one had the courtesy to let me know if it worked for
them.
