is zope a good choice for prototyping?

[LeoDeBeo]

for a few web-pages, zope is overkill
it is a nice tool to create sites with many stakeholders: content 
providers, web developers, graphics artist can work at the same time doing 
their work for the site and zope forces them not to interfere with each 
other. So if you know that your site is going to be biiiiiiig and you don't 
want maintenace problems in the future, you should learn to use Zope
for complicated web applications you may be benifiting from an application 
server like Enhydra (although quite a steep learning curve). It is more 
suitable for developing and deploying web applications (java apps and 
servlets that can connect to a database). Enhydra gives you a web 
application framework like, for instance, qt gives you a gui application 
framework. that is to say: a collection of pre-build classes and components 
that you can customize to build your own applciations.
