[Koha-zebra] Koha & zebra (continuing to try to understand...)

I keep seeing references in this discussion to Net::Z3950 that could be
taken to mean we're still going to be using that technology in Koha 3.0. 
For example:

Since Net::Z3950 has been one of the biggest stumbling blocks to
installing Koha on Mac OS X, I hope someone can assure me that we're not
going to perpetuate that problem!
