Versions current?

Are these version numbers still accurate for the most stable and robust installation?

Versions are those versions used at time of writing

No, the versions listed in the document are the versions I used when I wrote the tutorial
consult the python/zope/plone version matrix found elswhere on the site to find the current recommended versions.

Fix the permissions

To better handle file names with spaces and other characters, use the -print0 arg to find, and the -0 arg for xargs:

find products -type f -print0 | xargs -0 chmod g+r
find products -type d -print0 | xargs -0 sudo chgrp zope
find products -type d -print0 | xargs -0 sudo chmod g+rxw

For any issues with the web site functionality, please file a ticket.
