[zope2-tracker] [Bug 673441] Re: Poor installation user experience

[Hanno Schlichting]

It looks like you are requiring buildout in the simple 'install.rst'
instructions now. Tres refactored the install docs a while ago and *not*
requiring buildout for the simple install was an explicit goal.
Otherwise there's no point in having an extra install section for
buildout.

I think your 'demo.cfg' based instructions should replace the install-
buildout file, but the simple instructions should be left in place.

One more issue: You are pointing to bootstrap.py and demo.cfg URLs from
Subversion. That's not acceptable for any installation instructions.
URLs of source code internals are never guaranteed to be stable or
available. If we want to point to those two files, we can add them to
the KGS at http://download.zope.org/Zope2/index/2.13.6/. Always copying
those files is a rather simple change in the z2.release scripts I can
do.
