[Zope3-Users] Find the zope3 instance home directory (or the /var directory)

[Stefan H. Holek]

I don't think there is any way whatsoever in Zope 3. There is no  
"instance" home to begin with, and the os.pardir hacks don't work  
either because you can't really know where your package is installed.
