The new.zope.org initiative died because no-one could write any content. Even then 5-10 pages of content requires for a very basic microsite was too much, and several separate calls for volunteers produced almost no actual content, even if several people showed an interest.
Where did you ask for volunteers? I don't remember seeing in on zope-web, but I could have missed it or just forgot. My attitude has always been, and is still: Build it and they will come. We don't need content, we need a site. Besides, the current state is, and has for a long time been, almost worse than having no site at all, and definitely worse than having a couple of microsites even if these have almost no content.
Another observation: the thing that most people seem to want to make a site about was the ZODB. We nearly had enough content for a ZODB microsite thanks to Christian Theune and a few others.
If there is one page, then that's enough. Hence, there should have been a zodb.zope.org by now. -- Lennart Regebro: Pythonista, Barista, Notsotrista. http://regebro.wordpress.com/ +33 661 58 14 64
