What about renaming the Zope 3 zope package to "z".
Examples (from the buddydemo example):

Is this really just a matter of what you're used to? If you didn't have lots of experience typing "zope", would typing "z" instead really bother you? I actually like the z by itself. Perhaps because it echos the "circle z". I think I also like it because it seems to add less noise to the import lines. For example, I think I actually prefer: import z.interface from z.app import zapi from z.app.event import publish from z.app.event.objectevent import ObjectModifiedEvent to: import zope.interface from zope.app import zapi from zope.app.event import publish from zope.app.event.objectevent import ObjectModifiedEvent Jim -- Jim Fulton mailto:jim@zope.com Python Powered!
