Zope 2.9.1? Our current Zope package in CURRENT

Ok, so do I understand correctly: Zope/Plone insists on running with
Zope 2.9.6 only. That's the reason why you downgraded from Zope 3.3.0 to
2.9.6, right? Hmm... but then I would expect that we (1) fix the "zope"
package at the version 3.3.0 (in case it is also broken), (2) create a
"zope2" package which still provides Zope 2.9.6 but has "Provides: zope
= %{version}-%{release}" and then (3) create the "zope-plone" package
which has "...PreReq: zope <= 2.9". I really would like to see that
we both provide the "latest and greatest" Zope and a working couple
Zope+Plone. Can you do this and commit those changes, Bill?
