Maybe that is the natural state for a rapidly maturing Open Source project. After all, Linux itself was a "labor in obscurity" sort of amateur project for nearly a decade.
By the time Linux hit the popular press it was well entrenched in corporate DNS, email and web servers.
On the other hand, if you like myself remain mystified that Zope hasn't made a massive splash in the Application Server market, then maybe it's time to think about "the grand plan".
Does Zope really need to make a big splash anywhere? Zope will get adopted by word of mouth.
