I agree with Chris and I hope that we will get NZO done in the near future with the help of Sidnei from the community side and Guido on the ZC side. There has been too much wasted effort in the past on this project without results. I remember that Jens and I worked very hard on migration issues and a new product for software releases in the summer of 2001...it has been a bit frustrating to see that this work did not bring NZO forward. We all know that we *need* a new zope.org because current.zope.org sucks like hell. I am pretty sure there are enough people in the community willing to contribute. As an example, the German Zope User Group (www.dzug.org) built its web site during some month. Ok...the site is not as complex as zope.org but people are willing to contribute if they can see results and they don't like to work in an ancient working environment (...all these tiny textareas everywhere on zope.org ;-)).

Thanks for the summary, sounds fascinating.
My personal 2p?
Unless ZC relinquish bottleneck control over zope.org, it ain't gonna happen. Given the current pathetic excuse of a site at zope.org (crap searching, UI, outdates content, etc) we can hardly expect Zope to grow at all, let alone the 10x promised last year.
We aren't 10x bigger now, and we won't ever be at the rate things are going.
Will ZC realise this in time?
cheers,
Chris
