When it hits the shelves, it will be about 2.3.  After that, we will
maintain the book to be in sync with the current release according to
the as-yet-unofficial documentation development process:

I belive all reference to xslt methods has been removed.  Python methods
will be part of the 2.3 release, and Perl methods are mentioned in the
book as being a component add on that must be installed.

Check out Zope and Python Methods from CVS.  Perl Methods can be
downloaded from the Perl wiki on (I believe) dev.zope.org.
