why not wait for zope2.12 with python2.5/2.6 support, upload that one to
debian/unstable and afterwards file a request for removal for
zope2.10/zope2.11/python2.4? I believe that a zope2.12 release candidate
will be published within the next month, given that a beta2 has already
been published on 27. of may.
That way we would have a zope2 release available in debian/unstable all
the time would.
