1) Do you think Zope/Plone would be the right thing for this kind of project, or rather some Java CM-system (with better performance maybe since it is compiled and not interpreted?) or some PHP-system? (not a fan of PHP, to be honest... I favor python)
Zope should be fine. Java is a little bit faster than Python, but that's not where the bottleneck is, so you don't have to worry about that.
2) Now, the main question: Zope or Plone? I don't completely understand the difference between these two...
Plone is a CMS using the Zope application server. Others are CPS and Silva. Both CPS and Plone has some of the functionality you wanted, so you may be able to avoid writing as much there. Download them and check them out. -- Lennart Regebro, Nuxeo http://www.nuxeo.com/ CPS Content Management http://www.cps-project.org/
