I will also note that just because Zope 2 won't die, it doesn't mean we shouldn't clean it up. Eventually, Zope should mostly be reusing things from Zed.

I think this will be the way we get a real forward migration path for an awful lot of us who are still using Zope 2 today, and expect to continue doing so.
We may or may not ever port to "zope 3", whatever that will mean in the future. More likely we will just incrementally improve and clean up our applications, just as Zope 2 itself will be getting incrementally better and cleaner. We'll have to address deprecation warnings at each upgrade, but at no point will we be forced to do a complete rewrite. And along the way, we'll be gradually getting access to more and more nifty features.
I don't see how we need a new vision. This has been the vision (evolution, not revolution) that I've been carrying out with Five for the last few years and thanks to a lot of contributions by a large range of developers, we've been making it work. Can't we just keep going on the way we've been going then? Regards, Martijn
