At the moment not all installers are buildout based. This makes things 
difficult for people who use easy_install to install things in their 
Plone: easy_install will pull in plone.* packages that are already 
included in the site, possibly using conflicting versions and breaking 
the site. I'm wondering if it is possible to do something akin to 
fakezope2eggs 
(http://pypi.python.org/pypi/affinitic.recipe.fakezope2eggs) for those 
installers.

Opinions? Is someone willing to volunteer working on this? This has a 
chance of improving things dramatically for the majority of Plone users 
(who use the Windows installer).

Wichert.
