If I understand this thread properly
<http://codespeak.net/pipermail/z3-five/2004q4/000251.html>, the problem
is that zope2 and zope3 page templates do not talk to each other nicely. 
I can see that is a problem, but actually not too killer for me because
I'm happily using zope2 zpts.

Could we write some code to mimic a a portal_skins folder that exposes
zope2  zpts that have been declared using the browser:page commands?

Or maybe I misunderstand the problem...

I'm afraid I'm not on (and have never used) IRC.  I'm certainly interested
in what you discuss though.
