[Zope] What do we want in the way of Zope binary distributions?

I like the linux tarball a lot. With it you can get a Zope installation 
running pretty much anywhere on the filesystem with great speed and 
little hassle. (Not having to think about the system Python version, for 
instance.) I may have strange use patterns, but I do that often enough 
to notice.

I won't cry over it going away if the new source install is as simple as 
described. But I sure find it a handy thing to have around (and have 
never had any problems with it on any or the various and often strange 
environments I've used it on.)
