I've heard that rumored, but there's nothing indicating that in the release announcement. There are forward looking statements in there: "tarballs... for the last 3.4 series and probably for 3.5 as well." I take this to mean that there's an intention to have a 3.5, 3.6, 3.7 release, etc, but past 3.5, the release won't be packaged as a tarball. If this is the case, even if it's just for 3.5, it would sure help reduce confusion to give this "release of packages" (even if it's just a buildout and the KGS for that release) a name other than "Zope".
Or if not, it would seem like there would be a better argument for the new approach having a new name than the old one.
I'm not sure which is "the new approach" and which is the "old one"?
Well, given that this is a very, very late, long planned release always called "Zope 3.4," I'd like to see it come out ASAP without further delay for semantic and philosophical argument. Then we can figure out what to call the next one. --Tom
