If you want to develop a simple "application " (not a zope product), create 
the following directories (or make sure they exist)

/var/lib/zope/Document
/var/lib/zope/PropertySheet

then put your files inside. This is described in the tutorial You can later 
distribute your application as a business template.

If you want to create a new Product completeley, have a look at

http://cvs.erp5.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/Coramy/

It is much more complex to distribute than business templates.
