I think aquisition is one of the great features of Zope. A small, ridiculuous example is this: if you declare a webmaster name/email address as a dtml-var (like the standard_header), and it's on every page of a 1000 page site, and you want to change it, you can do it in one spot, and it changes everywhere!
Bad example! import Borg globals = Borg.SiteBorg() globals.adminName

That could just as easily be done with the above code. The aquisition is a harsh mistress and can burn you badly!
Why bother with Zope if you take away all the stuff that makes it unique? Obviously there are warts to Zope, but nothing is perfect.
Zope has get a few thing very right and a lot of things a little wrong :-/ Zope 3 will hopefully correct most of the problems. regards Max M -- "Sorry I would Really Like To Help More On This Project, But Am To Busy Doing Paid Work On A Tight Deadline" Max M
