You can see how the Zope 3 appserver loads the configuration in
zope.app.appsetup.appsetup; there's a single call to
zope.configuration.xmlconfig.file().  The contents of site.zcml are
responsible for all ochestration; there's nothing particularly special
about the meta.zcml; the naming is strictly convention.

This has nothing to do with ZConfig, though there has been some hint
that ZConfig could provide an alternate syntax to XML.
