+1 on Jim's suggestion #2. However, if I am understanding things correctly, it doesn't really sound like door #2 entails a huge deviation from from our current course of bringing Zope 2 and Zope 3 together gradually. I don't really care what the converged product is called, be it Zope 2.250 or

Hey, I have another comment about Zope 5, sparked by something Jeff Shell wrote. Currently we have a clear path to evolution. Zope 3 evolves at its pace, and Zope 2 evolves mostly by catching up with Zope 3, replacing more and more bits with Zope 3 bits, which often takes considerable
