Were this truly the case, most Plone people wouldn't bother
contributing to this thread.  But the reality is -- I (from a Plone
people point of view) am very concerned about the future of Zope from
both technology and marketing standpoints.

I do python/zope/plone consulting for a living -- it thrills me when I
can say to a fairly technology-savvy client that I will deploy my
solution on top of Zope and they say, Oh Zope? I've heard thats pretty
good.  And yes, it has happened.

I don't think that's true. I'm certainly not, and I've not heard anyone  
directly in favour of that either. What I *am* in favour of is branding  
the current Zope efforts much more strongly, and I think that an  
*additional* name to hype a Zope 3 brand around (Zope 3 Zebra or whatever)  
would make such marketing easier.


Building our software on a less obscure appserver would make Plone much  
stronger. I know a very large organisation that would jump on Plone if it  
were built in Java. Zope is scary.
