[Zope] CST vs Zope Sessions

[Chris McDonough]

You should probably use the sessioning stuff that comes with Zope
2.5.  It is better-maintained at this point.  There hasn't been a
new CST release since the before the release of 2.5, and there
probably won't be another.

Note that the 2.5 sessioning stuff is really a later revision of CST
with the serial numbers filed off and a slightly different API.
