- Improve project setup
As Shane pointed out, it is hard to get started. The solution could be a combination of documentation and tools, like zopeproject.
zc.zope3recipes is very interesting, but with a "deficiency": no default configuration for app & instance part. A good thing could be to integrate zopeproject.
I also just committed my little sandbox setup that can be used to take a quick look at Zope3. I personally use it for playing with some eggs and for showing "zope3 the application server" to other people. It's based only on zc.buildout, zc.zope3recipes, and pure zcml setup. It doesn't use paste or any z3c package - just plain old zope3 on twisted with rotterdam and so on. It also contains an example of code that creates a new content type (with doctests). If we want people to start learning Zope3 through ZMI, may be something like that could be developed and used as a demo instead of z3c.formdemo :) I quite like it because it contains very few files and is rather easy to understand by newbie. Next, we may want to point people to packages like z3c.pagelet and z3c.form, so some tutorial should be written on how to add support for that to their current setup (z3c.rotterdam could be used as an easy way).
