Yes. No so magically but fairly easily. There is a zope utility
installed on both axiom-developer and axiom.risc called ZSyncer.
This program identifies what pages have been changed at each
site and allows one to copy page two and fro until both are up
to date (and any possible conflicts are resolved).

It works pretty well. I usually have been performing the synch
about once a week, except for the last two or three weeks
because I have been making a lot of changes on axiom-developer
org and decided to freeze axiom.risc for a while I case I needed
a quick recovery path.

I was planning to perform another sync this weekend. The content
would probably look be ok without it, but I was also planning to
propagate and test the changes to the underlying Python code.

Yes. I confirm that I do not have any access to the server.
Not even network ping. So it's either dead or disconnected.

Ok, please let me know.

Would you like to know more about how to do the ZSyncer?
