I'm proud to announce Plone 3.2a1, the first step towards an all egg-based
Plone release.

All packages used for this release can be found on both pypi.python.org
and http://dist.plone.org/release/3.2a1/ . You can use the latter as a 
custom index for setuptools or buildout. In additiong all version pin
information for this release can be found in a buildout-compatible
format at http://dist.plone.org/release/3.2a1/versions.cfg .

If you are using virtualenv for your Zope instance you can install Plone
using easy_install:

  easy_install Plone


If you are using buildout you can use this simple buildout recipe:

  [buildout]
  parts = instance
  extends = http://dist.plone.org/release/3.2a1/versions.cfg
  versions = versions
  
  [zope2]
  recipe = plone.recipe.zope2install
  url = http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.10.6/Zope-2.10.6-fina...
  fake-zope-eggs = true
  additional-fake-eggs =
      ZConfig
      pytz
  
  [instance]
  recipe = plone.recipe.zope2instance
  zope2-location = ${zope2:location}
  user = admin:admin
  eggs =
      Plone

This assume that you have PIL already installed. If you do not have PIL
installed you will need to add this line to the [buildout] section:

  find-links = http://dist.repoze.org/plone/latest

and add PIL to the eggs list in the instance section.

Wichert.
