[Zope3-Users] Checkout

[David Johnson]

The best process I've come up with so far is the following:
1. Create a Container that can contain only IStep (which I call IWizard)
2. Create components that are derived from or provide IStep
3. Add the components and sort them according to the order they  
should be displayed.
4. Create a view on the container that guides the user through the  
steps.
