I think that having one name for two radically different, though

things is very confusing. There are really
2 main technologies that people care about:
1. The Zope app server. This is characterized by things like an object
file system, through-the-web scripting and/or development, pluggable
course-grained add-ons, etc.
I must warn you that what you call 'app server' is not what I call
app server; I believe that using the word appserver for this set of
technologies could be very confusing to people. I believe Zope 3 is
an application server. I believe, say, Django is an application
server too, even though as far as I know it lacks an object file
system and through the web scripting. Can we find another word for
what you mean?
I wasn't trying to define app server. I was describing the Zope app
server.
Jim
why not say that the Zope application server is based on the Z
Foundation Libraries (ZFL) ?
"Z" can be interpreted as being short name for "Zope" without creating a
new name for it.
which can also be interpreted as the libraries used by the zope
foundation software (ZF)?
