let's fix that.  afaik, the development was done and stalled after
some time, for the lack of time, resources, etc.  if others would
like to help, i'm sure Chris M will gladly accept.

get the files, edit, extend, add, etc and send to chris for inclusion.

also, another notable book is dieters zope book. google for it

Ok, I found
the reference to ZopeWiki under Zope Exits on zope.org, stupid of me to not
look around properly before I start complaining. :P

Anyhow, the

Thanx you

... which are both great, and both about zope 2.
(Well, there is a small amount of stuff about zope 3 in zopewiki.org,
hopefully there will be more.)

For Zope 3, both the available print books are pretty good, but you need
to know going in that some things are already out of date; for example,
Services no longer exist, there are only Utilities.  The general
concepts still apply.
