Last time there was a new Zope version, Anthony Baxter wrote:

. install new version
install ZServer into new version (hm, do I still need to update Folder.py?)
. copying external methods and products from old to new installations
. transferring bobobase. either by exporting the old one, and importing the
new, or by just copying over the Data.bbb. The former is more of a pain,
the latter means you lose any new stuff in the default bobobase.

I tried copying my 1.10.2 var directory to the 1.11 installation and things
broke. I also tried exporting the object (folder). Looking in the management
screen, everything seems OK.
When I tried to use my application I got:
<!--

So, what is the "true path to upgrading"? I looked in the ZDP's FAQ an all I
found was a quote from DC saying that applications may be retained after
upgrade.
