[Interface-dev] Chain adaption?

[Alexander J Smith]

`zope.interface` provides what you'll need to define interfaces, but  
to use component lookups, such as adaptation, you will need  
`zope.component`.  You may also want to try using `zc.buildout`, which  
is a build tool you can use to make building and dependency management  
easier.  Also, when you build `zope.component` successfully, you will  
get a test runner which you can run to see if `zope.component` will  
work with Python 2.5 or whatever else you may want to use.

All of these packages can be found on http://python.org/pypi along  
with documentation :)
