Out of curiosity, why are the Zope developers responsible for the fact that python breaks compatibility with their (python's) APIs from release to release? > Fedora inclusion process is fast, zope will be back as soon as the zope > devs get their stuff in shape again. So, being on the bleeding edge is more important than functionality to Fedora? The only problem with Zope's engineering decisions here is that they're tightly integrated to python, and the python folks don't seem to worry overly much about backward compatibility at that level of integration.
