The new release has 2 major features: - Conditional sections allow you have buildout options that depend on the environment buildout runs in (OS, Python version, etc.) https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zc.buildout/2.1.0#conditional-sections - Meta-recipes allow you to scale the scope of buildouts sanely. https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zc.buildout/2.1.0#meta-recipe-support As well as a number of bug fixes. https://pypi.python.org/pypi/zc.buildout/2.1.0#id3 Jim -- Jim Fulton http://www.linkedin.com/in/jimfulton

Nice! I'll try to use the combination of conditional sections and meta-recipes in my work somewhere in the next weeks. I think that'll make our setup easier. Conditional sections could help a lot in "hard-to-install-on-OSX versus easy-on-ubuntu" scenarios, I guess, for instance.
