Today I tried PloneOut. It is a buildout recipe to install Zope 2.10 + Plone 3.0 and some other products. It works like a charm.
The buildout tool makes the process of installing complex software as easy as a click.
Here are the steps:
add a plone site and try the edit-in-place feature.

Here are the steps:
$ svn co https://svn.plone.org/svn/plone/ploneout/trunk ploneout
Go and drink a cup coffee$ cd ploneout
$ python bootstrap.py
$ bin/buildout -v
Put on your watch and your shoes, head out the door and walk 2 km. When you come back you will find your plone 3.0 ready for you. I regret I didn't so.$./bin/instance fg
point your browser to:http://localhost:8080/manage
add a plone site and try the edit-in-place feature.

Hi,
I tried this under Windows Vista with a self compiled python244 and Visual Studio 8. Installation works fine, but every time I start zope (with bin\buildout.exe fg), I get the following error:
ZConfig.SchemaResourceError: could not load package ZServer: No module named select
Package name: 'ZServer'
File name: 'component.xml'
Package path: None
Any idea about that problem?

Hi Basti,
Your have a bad python installation. The select module is a standard python module. In your case it is not there: "No module named select"
You have to recompile/reinstall python. You should be able to import 'select' without a problem:
>>> import select
>>>
Good luck

Nighttime walk no longer required. ;)
I just used the current 3.0 branch of ploneout, and it definitely didn't take more than a few minutes to set up now. The first step seemed to take longer, actually (the SVN checkouts).
Also, creating a .buildout/default.cfg in your home directory will make sure it has a centralized place to put the eggs etc, so it won't download already existing ones.

Oh, and instructions on the buildout defaults file:

Hi Alexander,
About the buildout's default.cfg. I got the tip from Daniel Nouri last week who gave me his default.cfg file. I'm using it and sure it speeds the buildout process
