Greetings,

As promised, it is possible now to browse the Zope public CVS repository
through the web.  If you're interested in looking at the latest Zope
developments, this is a good place to start without having the check out
your own copy.

This site is also handy for viewing the various evolutions of Zope, and
for getting pretty colored diffs between versions.  If you want to know
the difference between two recent versions of a certain file, cvsweb
will show you in glaring full color.

The web view of the Zope CVS is more fragmentary the the view you get
with the 'cvs' command.  If you want to check Zope out of the public
cvs, it is recommended you just check out 'Zope', which is an options
not shown on the web cvs.  The public CVS uses its module file to stitch
together the various components that can be seen on the web view into a
Zope distribution.  Complete instructions on how to do this can be found
at:

http://www.zope.org/Community/CVS_public_access

The web interface can be found at:

http://www.zope.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi

In case you're curious, this is not a Zope module but a CGI script
written in Perl.  It can be found at:
