A passing comment:

- Eggs are great for distributing libraries.

- They aren't ideal for distributing applications, which are often composed of many libraries, in the form is eggs.

zc.buildout is a tool for assembling libraries and other parts to create working applications. (Of course, it is not the only tool.)

The zc.sourcerelease package provides a simple script that leverages buildout to help create self-contained source releases from working buildouts. This is the tool that I use to distribute applications.

Raphael,

Either include a MANIFEST file or make the egg from a subversion/cvs
checkout. The former tells explicitly what to include the latter
implicitly (everything that's under version control basically).

This means calling zopeproject with "--svn-repository" ...?
Ok, I'll try it.

I'd suggest to look at buildout if you want to support
such things as well.

So, buildout is the correct approach to deploy an egg as a zope app?
Ok.

thanks,
Nando.
