zc.buildout 2.0.0a4 released

zc.buildout 2.0.0a4 (and zc.recipe.egg 2.0.0a3) has been released.

This release is based on a new buildout2 effort that was started a few
months ago and drops some complexity from buildout 1, including:

- Attempts to be isolated from site-packages

- Support for multiple Python's

- Support for zipped eggs.

This release support Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.2 and 3.3.

To experiment with it, get the bootstrap script:

  curl https://raw.github.com/buildout/buildout/master/bootstrap/bootstrap.py
> bootstrap.py

Since this is still an alpha release, you'll need to supply the -y
option to bootstrap.py::

  python bootstrap.py -t

Expect fairly rapid iteration on this in the coming weeks.

Jim
