Zope support for Vim's snipMate plugin

Tired of typing in endless boilerplate code when writing Zope applications?

This bundle will ease the pain in your fingertips and make development in Vim
a more enjoyable and smooth experience... hopefully.

Introduction

What is Zope?
Zope is a free and open-source object-oriented Python framework.
See: http://www.zope.org

What is snipMate?
snipMate is a snippets extension for Vim. It is inspired by
TextMate's popular 'code snippets' feature.

What is zope-snipmate-bundle?
This is a bundle of 'snipMate compatible' snippets generated from
Tom Lazar and Witsch's excellent Zope snippets for TextMate.
See: https://github.com/tomster/zope.tmbundle

What is provided by this bundle?
* snipMate snippets for TAL, ZCML and common Zope and Plone code blocks.

Where can I get updated versions of this bundle?
