I don't think we should commit to any official support for more than 1 
Python version for a particular Zope. So either we certify Zope 2.11 for 
Python 2.5, or we stick to Python 2.4.

My preference would be to get Zope 2.11 up to speed. The last time this 
was discussed with Jim, the idea was to try to use Zope 3's security 
proxy approach in Zope 2 for Python Script security - Jim and I had some 
ideas I need to dredge up from the back of my mind.

Jim, do you remember what was required?
