Update of /cvs-repository/Zope3/doc/zsync
In directory cvs.zope.org:/tmp/cvs-serv16516/doc/zsync

Modified Files:
	README.txt zsync.txt 
Log Message:
check off a minor to-do item:
for "zsync checkout", allow the username to be specified using -u/--user
instead of requiring the obscure URL syntax; this mirrors the syntax of
the "zsync login" and "zsync logout" commands
