The 2.5 release contains minor additional fixes for issues found during the beta cycle.
WARNING: The session tracking product has changed since beta 3, and this creates a database incompatibility when upgrading from an earlier 2.5 beta release. Read the workaround until a solution is devised.
The binary releases for Zope 2.5.0 contain the Python 2.1.2 final release. Users of the Zope source release should note that Python 2.1.2 is now the required platform. Python 2.1.2 includes a fix to an issue that could cause crashes in Zope.
