[Pkg-zope-developers] Bug#335488: Removal request for old zope packages

[Fabio Tranchitella]

Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal

The following source packages should be removed from unstable, since they
are old versions of Zope server and Zope products and have been superseded
by new versions:

  zope (superseded by zope2.7, zope2.8)
  zopectl (useless package without zope)
  zope-cmf (superseded by zope-cmf1.4 and zope-cmf1.5)

The following source packages, instead, have been orphaned by the respective
maintainers and nobody is taking care of them. They all depends on zope (= 2.6),
which we are going to remove and are old versions with no upload in the last year
and half, so they can be removed too.
