While I assume that recent versions of ZMS will work with recent Zope
version because it is actively maintained and thus I do not expect any
compatibility problems it needs testing anyway.  My wording in recent
postings was choosen in the sense that it is possibly better to drop the
zope-zms package from Debian rather than keeping it basically untested.
So if nobody actively raises his hand I would recommend filing an ROM
bug to ftpmaster.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
