Hi Dieter. Zope 2 is one application among many dependent upon zope 3. Zope 3 is different software than zope 2. It has a community of pure zope 3 developers (that I don't believe the suggestion of folding the lists together adequately considers).
Again, these lists are about the development of, not development with. There are indeed some people developing only Zope3 but not involved in Zope2. I don't think they are very many. There are none involved in Zope 2 that are not involved in Zope 3.

It's not unstated, although admittedly, it is in my opinion off topic for the discussion.
that would further obfuscate it as a framework
Nope.

Nope.
Zope 3 stands on its own as a framework and I sure hope I am wrong about how I have been interpreting the dialog.
