it works. Nice. Upgraded! :-).

Sorry for wasting your time.

The announcement email is quite short, 3 paragraphs. One of them is just
this:

"""
You can download it via PyPI: https://pypi.org/project/Zope2/2.13.27
"""

Yes, I can download it, but I can not install it via PYPI as a regular
package. It doesn't work. In fact
<https://pypi.org/project/Zope2/2.13.27> shows "pip install
Zope2==2.13.27", that we have seen as wrong command to install.

I wonder why "requirements.txt" in pypi package doesn't pin dependencies
versions, as listed. Is that a PIP bug?.

The thing is:

1. Zope2 can not be installed as 99.9% other packages, just doing "pip
install".

2. The announcement email points to a webpage showing a PROMINENT
install command that produce a non-working configuration.

A simple possibility is just to add paragraph in future announcement
emails just saying: "This package ca not be installed in the regular
way. Follow instructions in http://....";.

Thanks for the work you and all the team are doing. Much appreciated.
Looking forward Zope 4 and scared of how the migration will go :). Too
much legacy, grateful of Zope 2 maintenance :).
