[Pkg-zenoss-team] Zenoss package: roadmap for unstable

As far as I can tell our major goals will be the following (Bernd, feel
free to convert them to our TODO list on Alioth, I haven't check how it
reflects the reality right now):

1) various bugs in the zope toolchain  ->  Fabio is working on them

2) license issues -> I personally don't think the EULA that a user has to
    accept before using Zenoss is compatible with the GPL, no matter
    what the EULA claims. Before asking on debian-legal about that I
    will try to get in touch with someone from debian-legal here at
    DebConf. I will keep you posted

3) upgrade issues -> I think the current mechanism for upgrading is a bit
    too liberal: for example executing 2 times in a row "dpkg -i" on the
    zenoss package will attempt an upgrade. I do not think this is what
    we want. Moreover, the upgrade does not work: it seems it is
    attempted when zope is down. Bernd, can you please look at this?

All the above three issues need to be solved before the package can be
uploaded to unstable. Anything else?
