So you think it is better to loose the existing Zope 3 developers in anticipation of more community involvement? This would be Zope 3's death blow as we know it, because it would stall Zope 3 for several months. Honestly, I rather have less exposure and keep the code base clean. > Bottom line: I find the risk of your having to dig through horrible Zope 2 > code much lower than the chance of joint efforts on Zope 3 technology.

In all honesty, I think you are downplaying the new overhead of Zope 3 developers too much.
