here anymore.

-    The ConversionTool class will provide in the future an
-    API to unify file conversion and metadata handling in ERP5.
-
-    The first version consists of a tool which acts both as central
-    point for conversion services and metadata handling services
-    for all ERP5 Document classes and scripts, as well as a Web
-    Service for external applications.
-
-    The Tool calls itself, through XML-RPC protocol. A dedicated
-    Zope instance can be setup for handling conversions.
-
-    In the future, the tool will be splitted in 2 parts:
-      - a Tool
-      - a WSGI service
-
-    The tool reuses the portal_web_services to connect through
-    XML-RPC to the conversion server.
-
-    ARCHITECTURE PHASE 1: all Converter classes are stored
-    in the Converter directory part of ERP5 Product. The tool
-    serves both as caller and recipient, and calls itself
-    through XML-RPC.
-
-    ARCHITECTURE PHASE 2: all Converter classes are moved to
-    a dedicated directory in /usr/share/oood/converter
-    (or new name). The Web Service API is moved away from
-    ConverterTool class and turned to a WSGI independent service

-    NOTE: this class is experimental and is subject to be removed
