[Zope] Problem with Python Win32 Extensions

[Gilles Lenfant]

Have a look at the license in any ZMI...

http://yourzope:8080/manage_copyright

... in the "Zope credits" section...

"""
A subset of windows guru Mark Hammond's win32 extensions are bundled with
win32 binary distributions of Zope
"""

IMHO, the **subset** includes only what core Zope needs.

Check the win32all license to see if you can bundle another win32all subset
with your product with Mark Hammond's agreement.
