CMF hasn't *depended* on Z2 interfaces in donkey's years:  CMF 1.6
(three years old now) switched to using Z3 interfaces.  Up through CMF
2.1, we generated BBB versions of those interfaces as Z2 interfaces in
the old locations, mostly because *you guys* were using them instead of
Z3 interfaces.

Two things:

- - "Push" isn't the right word:  you just need to "ask'. :)  Ideally,
  you would also help, e.g. by verifying that the current trunks of each
  package didn't break your stuff.

- - The individual packages are now released separately, so you need
  to think about asking for releases of the packages you actually
  use in Plone.
