It's python 2.1 ready/Zope 2.4 ready. (To help alleviate the fears that
you'll be stuck one day not being able to upgrade it, I patched it myself
to be 2.4 ready, which took about 15 minutes, and I'm not a
superguru. There is an official 2.4 version now, however.)

I'd love to see the fine folks at the Zope Corporation roll it into the
standard distribution. Perhaps we on the mailing list can cheerfully
suggest this.


It works perfectly, all the time. Can't think of any problems. Anyone?
