Well, I understand the need to file off the sharp edges.  But the  
resulting index.stx is pretty damn general, at least to me.  I can  
live with it, but it comes out sounding like "We do a whole lot of  
stuff."

Since I'm not coding it, I'm not the one to make choices.  Just  
commenting that, as a semi-outsider, there doesn't seem to be much of  
a there there in the story now that "Zope" is gone and "deploy"  
expanded into "package and deploy".

Anyway, I'll change the home page to this story and we'll resume the  
discussion when others show up.
