I really like the idea of Zope.  I'm less satisfied with the results
I've seen from using Zope.  Maybe we're just not as good as I think we
are, maybe we're using the wrong architecture to build apps in Zope, but
as far as we can tell, our big problem is in getting Zope to run
reliably as a front-end for database operations.  We haven't had much
luck getting help from Digital Creations, either, even though we've
offered money.
