    Oh, OK. You know, probably not - the demand is mostly in the plone
    community, most of those who use other z-based technologies don't
    encounter difficulty with buildout. That's why I said that plone-only
    sounded fine. I was just curious what the extra work would be to not
    have it plone-specific.
