Most component packages do not use the KGS in their buildout, so I wasn't either. For production use we pin exact versions actually. Right, I should probably start adding the KGS index to the package's buildout to make clear what the expected working set is for a particular package. Well, pinning versions for production is okay, but what are you doing during development? If everyone keeps their own working set of versions, we will soon have a support nightmare, since reproducing someone else's setup will become almost impossible.

At least at ZC, the versions specifications are stored in Subversion right alongside the project code, and is essential build information. So you are effectively maintaining your own personal KGS configuration, which is fine if there are enough resources to do that properly, but I personally like delegating whenever I can ;) and i trust Stephan to do the task for me. And I don't think there are that many developers that are better than Stephan at keeping a good KGS. I understand that Zope corp is employing a lot of programmers that have the expertise to maintain such a config, I just don't think everyone should do it.
