[Zope] beginner

[Phil Harris]

Gustavo,

You *really* need to read the Zope Book.

You don't create instances of Zope products from the control panel.  You
create them in a normal Zope folder.

Basically, in your Zope root folder, use the drop-down list control at top
right in your main manage window, select the tutorial from there.
