[Zope3-dev] Package is the wrong name for the things I called "Zope Packages".

To restate part of my earlier confusing addition to the thread, 
hopefully a little more clearly:

I like "bundle" for Jim's option 'C' (a package for distribution).

I'm with Jim that a distribution package thing should have a different 
name from a development space thing.  Most users will only ever use a 
'C', and then configure it.  We should not give them an opportunity to 
confuse a 'C' with an 'A' or 'B'.  For Jim's 'A' and 'B', I currently 
like "{closed|open} workspace", or even "{closed|open} project".

I don't like "Persistent Package" and "Persistent Module" because they 
are too ZODB-developer-centric.  Ideally a TTW developer should not need 
to know what persistence is.  I would prefer "Zope Package" and "Zope 
Module".  But I suspect I might be alone in that ;-)

Finally, why is everyone ducking when the word "Product" is mentioned? 
It has the benefit of already meaning something to most Zope users.
