I'm not sure what you mean with that, but for me, a known good set, or
what you call it, plus a buildout that uses this, would be enough for
a Zope 3.4 release.
If we easily can build the old standard downloadable tgz as well, then
fine, but it's not necessary.

Do you have a sort explanation on what is the missing resource? Is it,
as it was for 3.3, lack of people-hours with knowledge in fixing the
last bugs?
