So that means Zope 2.12 instead, right? Do we have an estimate of what that implies on our side? Generally speaking, I'm a bit uncomfortable with jumping from Zope 2.10.x to 2.12.x as this will reduce the chances of reacting to deprecation warnings which is of particular importance for all our add-on developers. I'm afraid we'll see lots of broken add-ons without prior warnings. If there is nothing we can do about this (and it seems so) we could still consider to have Plone 3.x move to Zope 2.11 with 3.4 or 3.5. Just thinking out loud (and without knowing myself how much differences there are between Zope 2.10 and 12 that do affect us) ... An outsider's take: I would strongly urge that a release-by-year-end Plone4 use Zope 2.12. There is no compelling technical reason to hold off, and plenty of time to test and iron out any issues. Staying up-to-date gets you a migration path to a Python version (2.6) which will be supported for a reasonable time frame (2.4 is effectively out of support now; 2.5 is at the end of its support life). It will also allow Plone to use the fully eggified Zope, and rip out lots of workarounds (fake eggs, anyone).

I doubt it's very hard, a concerted effort by me and Sidnei at the last Summer of Code summit left us with Plone trunk working on Zope trunk, and that was only a few weeks after the conference. Zope really was where most of the changes needed to be, I do think targeting 4.0 to Zope 2.12 is feasible and proper.
