[Zope3-Users] Zope Book remarks

Hi,

I'm currently working through Stephan Richters Zope book and I ran
into some issues. Perhaps they've already been resolved in newer
versions. If so, please ignore my remarks :)

I'm currently working with the pdf version at
http://dev.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/ComponentArchitecture/Zope3Book/book.pdf

- browser package include in configure.zcml missing

The configure.zcml in 13.7 is missing the following include:

 <include package=".browser" />

(the online source appears to be fine)

Also, section 13.1 mentions the svn webinterface, it took me a while
to find the actual svn repository at
svn://svn.zope.org/repos/main/book/trunk/messageboard

A typo in 13.10: ".. which is quiet a bit more .." should be quite, of course.

Lastly, I'm working with the ZopeX3-3.0.0 release with a separate
instance (mkzopeinstance). It might be a good idea (if not done
already) to base the book on using instances created mkzopeinstance.

This means, for example, "pyskel.py" will be <instance>/bin/pyskel,
tests should be run using <instance>/bin/test, and so on. I also
noticed that this "test" program requires the *full* path to be passed
to the --dir parameter (as it will try to strip the instance_home path
from it)

Still, many thanks for writing such an excellent piece of documentation!

Regards,

    Ivo
