That's fine. But it says nothing about the quality of the
already released tutorial. Nobody is willing to subscribe to yet 
another mailinglist to discusse one zope product.

OK ... MetaFlow and the tutorial is for free. But I can't see how
you can save my time if you want me to read more reviews, tutorials
and mails. Where is the real benefit?

Maybe it was a simlpe misunderstanding. But I talked from "old wine"
in relation to the LocalFS link at zopemag.com

You are right ... he isn't subscribed to this list.

Please have a look at the thread. ALL conversation is also addressed
to Michel Pelletier <michel@dialnetwork.com>. Please note his replys to
some of the postings.

The only reason why I took the time to report bugs is that the tutorial 
and the product is for free. 

I have no problem with paying money for a good service. But if I have to
pay for a service that should save my time it makes no sense to read 
reviews and tutorials to a half-cooked alpha product that I can not use
in production environments.

Thanks Andreas
