said language is bound to have better programming than all your earlier
projects. If you have no skills in a particular language, your first project
is bound to be full of holes and other serious problems.
IMHO, I would say learn python and zope now, if your boss is hell-bent on
it, and use it on a project you start in a few months, when you've become
more comfortable with development.
(this reminds me of the time my boss wanted to switch to asp... 'if we have
crappy code now, and you want to switch to another language, you'll still
have crappy code, just in another language...')

Not only is he non technical, but also non logical. Even if it's true that
you can build applications faster in Zope, you still have to factor in the
time it will take you/your team to learn it and get to know the ins and outs
of it.

Subject: Coldfusion VS Zope (Python) ... HELP!!
Hey everyone.
I've currently been asked by my boss to do a large application in Zope.
(www.zope.org)
We always done Coldfusion but despite the fact that he is not technical,
he's certain that the project we are doing could be built faster in
Zope. Despite that I've already made a case that Zope market is tiny,
(try doing a job search on it) and that none of the dev team knows Python
(yet).
Does anyone have any pros / cons that are fact based that a case could be
made
either way?
Has anyone here coded in Python? If so which is faster to code in?
Thanks for your input.
