[Zope] Article regarding JPassport

[Andy McKay]

Im really not sure what they are claiming they have done, but it sounds like
they have replicated the whole client side Passport stuff in Java. I just
wrote a Zope wrapper around a COM objectm so it still relies on the original
Passport being installed underneath. This has more of a marketing smell to
it than anything substantial.
