Is there a repeatable way of generating older sample Plone buildouts?
Specifically I'm looking for buildout format that's been used for the releases before Plone 3.2, as it was the first release that shipped with buildout by default. I know there are buildouts out there for Plone 3.x but googling for the didn't help me.
I'm trying to convert a Plone 3.0.4 project instance that's been set up with unified installer into buildout. I would like to get a repeatable, documented installation process, before figuring out what to do with the codebase, and most of the accessible examples are for Plone 4.x
This is a basic template produced by paster create -t plone3_buildout (old ZopeSkel<3.0). I used Plone version 3.1 below, you must adjust it with your version (...or simply: use ZopeSkel as I did).
