Hi Christophe, Thanks for your reply.
Maybe my question is naive? For background my original zopeproject looked like this below the virtualenv dir: oship-- bin develop-eggs log parts src-- oship (where all the good stuff is located) oship.egg-info var apidoc.zcml buildout.cfg debug.ini deploy.ini setup.py zdaemon.conf zope.conf .installed.cfg Creating a new space using "zopeproject --no-buildout oship" yields this: oship-- log src-- oship (where all the good stuff will be located) oship.egg-info var apidoc.zcml buildout.cfg debug.ini deploy.ini setup.py zdaemon.conf zope.conf .installed.cfg So I want to commit 'oship' as the top level dir whihc will include all of the above files/dirs?

Okay. > This prevents the buildout-generated files from > being included in the svn. Except for the buildout.cfg which is really my question. I have added some dependencies to this file that are not part of the normal Zope buildout (Pyparsing,mglob, etc) and it has my system specific path to my buildout-eggs (eggs-directory = /home/tim/buildout-eggs). Also my site.zcml files will be different from the zopeproject generated one because it needs to include directives for the app I am delivering. > Then your users just have to svn co the project and > launch the buildout to generate the remaining files.

So, I am now thinking that I will have to have instructions in my installation instructions that tell developers to edit the 'eggs-directory' line; correct? Also they will need to install buildout (or zopeproject) and create a project space before doing the checkout? (I think I am very confused) Granted that these are developers and it shouldn't be a problem. I am just trying to be as black and white as possible since my audience typically is the Zope developer community and we all know that those that have no seen the light (or drank the kool-aid) have adverse reactions to Zopish things. :-) I just want to be as transparent as possible for developers and eventually for users as well. Thanks, Tim
