The documentation on getting Rounup going with Zope 
is misleading. 

It says ZRoundup folder must be copied to Products 
directory, and that's all.  I don't think this can be right 
(or, at least, it didn't work for me).

Zope uses its own version of python (different to that 
installed on my machine) and roundup must be installed 
into this python. (I hope this makes sense ... I'm new to 
python and Zope).

With this change I got as far as having ZRoundup 
appearing in Zope's "Add..." list.  Of course, for me at 
the moment, this adding process still fails, so there is 
probably another step also not mentioned in 
documentation. 

I hope this helps ...

The installation notes clearly state at the top:  
  
1. `basic installation steps`_ that all installers must follow 
2. then optionally `configure a web interface`_ 
 
Unfortunately, the Zope Roundup interface is currently not working, 
and it's not looking like working again for a while. Hopefully the next 
patch release (sometime early November) will have it back up and 
running again.
