There is a message after make install that a make install has to be done. I
don't run a make instance because of the fakt that files installed by 
make instance aren´t deleted by pkg_delete. They have to type make instance 
as a confirmation that they have read this.

yes it does. Becaus teh default location for instances is ${PREFIX}/www/Zope 
and its difficult to sepeate zopefiles and instancefiles after install.

The latest update to the zope port has a startupscript that can run 
multiple instances.
