[Zope] CMFStaging, ZEO

[Michael Havard]

Are there particular products you suggest that would be useful to accomplish 
this.

For instance is there a particular product that you use for getting objects 
down to the file system (ExtFile, LocalFS, Files System Directory View). 
Would the files then be editable from both the ZMI and the FS or just one. 
Could we also use one of the ZOPE CVS products or are you strictly using the 
FS, an external editor, and CVS from the FS.

I've used zsyncer in the past and it's worked fairly well and I'm 
comfortable using it again if necessary. Is there a method for triggering it 
from the command line. My main concern is that another team will be 
supporting migration efforts and if they can do it with a script from the 
command line all the better.

Any products to help keep the site content seperate from the code. I've 
looked into using DBTab to mount an external db but I've seen a few posts 
with problems using it in plone.
