Will developers who make a living from Zope/Python be out of work when TCPA comes next year?
Uh? Of course. It doesn't have any impact on Zope at all, at least not on the short term. Assuming you are talking about the Trusted Computing Platform Alliance, at least. In the long term it might even be beneficial, since TCPA is created to stop pirating of software, and since Zope is free, people might choose free open source software more than they already do. :-) In the long term Zope might need to be able to support license distribution with TCPA, and I have no idea how hard that will be.
