Managing two branches and enabling child ports for both are such
big pain. I don't have idea about how much different is Zope 2.7
from 2.6 because I'm not a Zope user yet. I'd like to vote for Zope
2.7 only support if the most Zope products are compatible with Zope
2.7.
Also I'm very curious about that Zope 2.7 is ready for Python 2.3
or 2.2 even. ;-)

You would need to talk with nbm, the current maintainer about it
before working on it.
