Good Point - never thought of it that way, always assumed they needed to 
be compiled together to work right.
Last time I tried a Zope 1st, Plone 2nd install on Windows things didn't 
go so smoothly and it was nightmare to make sense of the directories.
ex: Which "import" folder the one under Plone or the one under Zope is 
where the import files go.
When you do a bundled install there's no redundancy.

Althought not the latest version it's pretty close and until I learn how 
to compile the source files myself it will have to do.
Now the question is for me on Ubuntu, what lines do I need in my 
apt/sources.list in order to hit the same repository you pulled the info 
from.
I've been wandering the Debian and Ubuntu sites for paths to 
repositories and I've seen them say 'you can use Debian packages, just 
be careful' but no one says what the path to the Debian repository is...

Thanks
Alex
