So Zope Corp is obligated to drive their development efforts based upon what Red Hat finds to be esthetically pleasing? > Compat packages are a crutch that massively magnify the amount of effort > required to support a distribution and that never goes away. You keep saying that it's a massive effort. Would you point us to some documentation outlining the work required? Also, how much work is required of Red Hat employees?
