The problem with the older form-related frameworks is that their registrations are made on the default browser layer, making it (1) very hard to selectively add registrations to your own layer/skin, and (2) polluting the default browser layer. z3c.form fixes this problem by creating a new layer dedicated to the form registrations. All you need to do is to inherit this layer in your custom skin to get the form registrations to work. Philipp provided the sample code already. Yes, this does mean that z3c.form cannot be used within any of the default skins, such as Rotterdam, but that's exactely the point. Of course, you can just simply make all the registrations in the Rotterdam layer/skin and z3c.form will be available there.
