This one is the latest version and as soon as the 2.7 edition (or maybe 
it will become the 2.8 edition) of the Zope Book is done it will replace 
the 2.6 edition on zope.org.

This chapter is not finished jet. The last part is just copied from the 
2.6 edition and doesn't work with the rest.

This one is the last 'official' version, but I would not recommend to 
use it.

The 2.7 rewrite is based on this text, but while this text is a 'stand 
alone' tutorial, the book chapter builds on top of the previous chapters.

The guest book example has to be converted to ZPT anyway, but the 
highest priority should be to *finish* the latest edition, not adding 
new examples.
