The checkin implies:

  - the "DBTab" package has been removed.  It is no longer necessary.
    Instead, we use ZODB 3.6's built-in multidatabase support.

  - ZODBMountPoint no longer monkey-patches ZODB to allow for mount
    support.

  - We temporarily hack setup.py to allow ZODB 3.6.0b1 to be compiled
    (it expects to be compiled via ZPackage).

packages than single pieces

  with Python
- remove use of the long-deprecated xmllib module, again using the Expat
  that comes with Python as a replacement

The Finder class is now used for the complete lib/python tree and has a blacklist instead of a whitelist for file extensions.
So there should no longer be a need to update setup.py if modules or files are added or removed in lib/python.

zope/app/publisher/browser/tests/testfiles/.  This
required adding a one-shot mechanism to Finder.visit().

The only tests that fail from a WinBuilders build/
directory now are the two that have been failing on
Windows since last October.

    *.rst
    *.request
    *.response

That fixes two of the test failures when running from a
WinBuilders build directory.  Two others have been failing since
last October.  That leaves one:

ERROR: testCorrectFactories (zope.app.publisher.browser.tests.test_directoryresource.Test)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Code\build\lib\python\zope\app\publisher\browser\tests\test_directoryresource.py", line 107, in testCorrectFa
ctories
    file = resource['png']
  File "C:\Code\build\lib\python\zope\app\publisher\browser\directoryresource.py", line 77, in __getitem__
    raise KeyError, name
KeyError: 'png'

It could well be that this one fails because zope/app/publisher/browser/tests/
test_directoryresource has a bunch of goofy files in it, like indeed a file named
plain "png" with no extension.

Looks like this may need to be a two-step checkin process.

Purged all uses of get_transaction().

lib/python/zope is now taken from tag Zope3/tags/ZopeX3-3.0.0-Zope-2.8-a2.

The 9 ZODB directories are now taken from current ZODB trunk.  A release
tag for that will be made, and Zope trunk switched to use it, later.

Unfortunately, svn refuses to update my local box to the new setup in
one step, presumably because part of this consists of deleting Zope
trunks copies of ZODB code (in favor of svn:externals).

On Windows, all tests passed on tim-merge-zodb34 branch except for the
two that have been failing for months, and without any transaction-
related deprecation warnings.

Changed all imports of and references to the Zope to use Zope2 instead. 

      - Collector #1450: files in utilities/ZODBTools are now installed
        during the installation process in the 'bin' directory

       operations from the command line (through zopectl)

     - added "version.txt" to setup.py to avoid untrue "unreleased version"
       messages within the control panel

Teach setup.py about the new transaction package.
