IRC Meeting: Zope2 Debian Packages

Hello all,

The last Zope2 versions that were packaged for Debian, namely Zope2.10
and Zope2.11, are long obsoleted. With Zope2.12, the build system
changed fundamentally. Unfortunately, the new Zope2 build system, built
on Python Buildout, is not very friendly to packagers.

That's the reason, why no attempt to package Zope2.12 for the Debian
distribution was successful so far. Yet, some developers and users,
among them  Michael Mulich, Gael Le Mignot and I, have strong interest
in Debian Zope2 packages.

Thus we're planning an IRC meeting to discuss the details of prospective
Zope2 Debian packages, and to coordinate their maintenance.

A wiki page was set up to coordinate agenda and exact date of the
meeting: http://wiki.debian.org/Zope/Zope2IrcMeeting

Feel free to extend the list of topics. And in case that you're
interested in attending the IRC meeting, please add yourself to the date
proposals you favour.

Michael and Gael: I prefer April 15th, 13:00h UTC for the meeting.

Greetings,
 Jonas Meurer
