 $ /path/to/Zope-2.10.x/bin/mkzopeinstance -d ~/z210 -u admin:123
 $ cp -r ~/z27/Products ~/z210/Products
 $ ~/z210/bin/zopectl fg
 # fix / upgrade products broken by the upgrade to 2.10 until
 # Zope starts in foreground mode
 ^C
 $ ~/z27/bin/zopectl stop
 $ cp ~/z27/var/Data.fs* ~/z10/var
 $ ~/z210/bin/zopectl fg
 # Now, find and fix problems related to old data
