The Unified Installer's buildout.cfg contains: """ [zope2] recipe = plone.recipe.zope2install # update zope by updating this URL: url = http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.10.7/Zope-2.10.7-final.tgz ... """ To update Zope, the user would need to update that URL. So, this may be the last significant component that's not taken care of by the "versions = URL" scheme. I'd love to hear if folks have ideas on this. My first thought for fixing this is that we could make the zope2install recipe smarter. > There was talk about making Zope binaries available and downloading them — > both on OS X (at least for Intel, PPC is not a priority) and Windows.

My current strategy is to make the OS X binary installer smart enough that you could download a new one, run it over an existing install, and have it update the binary components. But it's certainly not impossible that we could maintain online binary Zopes for OS X and Windows and make zope2install smart enough to use them when appropriate. I'd love to hear other ideas!
