Welcome to the Zope 3 project wiki. Zope 3 evolved from Zope 2 and improved the development experience through the use of a component architecture. It was originally intended to replace Zope 2; today (2011) it is packaged as the Zope Toolkit libraries, which are the basis for the Grok and BlueBream web frameworks and also for the ever-evolving Zope 2, now known as "Zope" again. Note, much of the information below is historical; for an up-to-date introduction to the Zope world, see zope.org.
The project leader is JimFulton.
