That sounds very interesting. However, zc.buildout is clearly aimed at large deployment. A *simple* way of deploying eggs in instances would still be needed (*I* need it, in fact); if not in Zope 3.3, then at least later. Currently you only have to drop package directories into INSTANCE/lib/python, something similar with eggs should also be possible. I frequently get lost between sys.path, sys.prefix, .pth files and the site.py module. The fact that a one line fix gets what we want seems simple enough to me. As said, I'm not the expert here, though :) Philipp _______________________________________________ Zope3-dev mailing list Zope3-dev@zope.org Unsub: http://mail.zope.org/mailman/options/zope3-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
