Let's us not forget that Zope is an open source product now. Having DC doing most of the development of Zope sometimes can make us forget that Open Source means a community collaboration. That would include the documentation. It is clear that the documentation currently lacks especially for beginners. But that's not the fault of DC itself, because creating documentation, especially for beginners can be a lot harder (and time consuming because we have to assume that they know nothing), and DC should spend time better on documenting and explaining the latest/coolest features instead.
So it's up to us, the community, to create the 'book'. We do need a 'book' with decent chapters. Lots of how-to is nice if you are already know what you are doing, but the information is fragmented, and it's no use for beginners.
Take a look at the Zope Documentation Project! http://zdp.zope.org and join the zdp mailing list. Regards, Martijn
