I merged/integrated the ZopeX3-3.0.0-Zope-2.8 branch into the main X3.0 
branch now; as for the data managers (mail and rdb) I've taken care so 
that they will work with both ZODB 3.3 and 3.4 (for the mail data 
manager I actually followed my above idea to have two separate ones).

If you want to follow my changes, read r37415 through r37425. I'm open 
to suggestions if you see something that you don't like.


Yvo, Lennart and others: the branch is waiting for your bugfix backports 
now. Just be sure to run the tests on both X3 standalone and a Zope 2.8 
sandbox (I removed lib/python/zope from mine and symlinked it to 
Zope-X3.0/src/zope).

I talked to Andreas and let him know about the X3.0.1 release. I will 
tag it the same day he'll tag Zope 2.8.1beta, which means sometime on 
Thursday. Please be ready by then; don't forget your entries to CHANGES.txt.

I haven't decided yet whether to do a X3.0.1beta on Thursday or just 
make it a final. If we do the beta, we wouldn't necessarily have to 
release it as a tarball; it could just exist in Zope 2.8.1beta for the 
time being. X3.0.1 final would then be released as a tarball, together 
with Zope 2.8.1 final. What do you guys think?

Hmm, I wonder why we're having betas for minor releases anyway. Andreas 
already dropped the practice for the 2.7 branch, I'm surprised he still 
wants to do it for 2.8.
