Those statements apply more to Zope 2 than Zope 3 (and Zope 2 is moving 
more and more toward Zope 3 these days).  One of Zope 3's main goals was 
to focus on the Python programmer as a primary target.  That being said

framework).

It's true that Z3 is not currently focused very well on the 
"middle-class" developer.  It's more of an industrial-strength kind of 
thing, but considerable thought has been given lately on how to build 
bridges so everyone can benefit without being full-time Zope masters.

Toward that end, I wrote a little quick start guide that might help the
