- -1; a "meta" egg would work fine as a place to specify hard-wired dependencies. Not every Zope3 user is going to be using buildout. Note that such a "mega-egg" would likely specify the "transitive closure" of its dependency graph, as well. Whether such a mega-egg is called an "official Zope release" is a different issue, but that would be one way to let folks download a "known good" integration (a distribution?) of the various satellite projects. +1 for avoiding gratuitous version-specific dependencies in "library" eggs; unless there is a known incompatibility, eggs should specify their dependencies by name.
