Hi Jeff! These are totally reasonable questions (to which I don't know the answers, unfortunately). But this is a pretty low-volume list dedicated to the setup and installationof Plone. It's not a great place to get lots of smart Zope eyeballs on questions about custom development and testing.
The most appropriate list for your question is probably the zope-users list at https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope, unless Plone is involved, in which case the general Plone-users list (http://plone.org/support/forums/general) is probably the place to go. Good luck! :jon On Tue, Aug 30, 2011 at 2:39 PM, Jeff Kunce <jjku...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi - > > If I can get some answers here, wonderful!
