although I am not a member of the Debian Zope team, I can say this
about the technical aspects, from my experience of working with Zope:

* Older versions of Zope 2 up to 2.11.x absolutely require Python 2.4.
* Newer versions of Zope 2, starting with 2.12, afair require Python
  2.6.

Also, Plone (very important for me) requires python-imaging for the
corresponding Python version.


I have private backported packages for 2.6 on Lenny which I could
upload to eg. p.d.o, but not yet managed to create a corresponding
python-imaging.


Kind regards,
