How to get out of that bind? We could consider renaming Zope 3.
Assuming Zope 3 The Application Server is still going to exist, I think it should be renamed (I suggested Blue Bream). But I have so far seen no indication that anybody wants it, neither during both PyCon nor during the Zope 4 discussion.
If we don't call Zope Framework "4.0", we'll be fine. We should call its first release 1.0 and there's no implication of a progression.
This is a good point. Unfortunately it's hard to call the framework anything else than the Zope Framework, as it's made up mainly of modules called zope.*. :-) That would give us, based on my earlier suggestion, Zope Framework 1.0 -> A Framework for building application servers. Zope 2, Grok and BFG -> Application servers using the Zope Framework This is only mildly confusing. It can also only get better with time, as Plone seems to continue away from Zope 2 and onto the framework, which means we in the future may end up with Plone, Grok and BFG being app servers on the Zope Framework. I also think all applications should move over to using repoze by default. BFG already does so, of course, and Plone 4 is set to do so. Hopefully by Zope 2.13, the old publisher can be a horrid memory, and repoze.Zope2 be default. -- Lennart Regebro: Pythonista, Barista, Notsotrista. http://regebro.wordpress.com/ +33 661 58 14 64
