Zope offers a lot more options in many areas. It is much easier to integrate legacy systems into Zope. Zope allows you to choose which database you store your data. Zope uses Python which many of us prefer over Tcl.
[lots of snippage above] For those who missed the mention the other day, I also wrote up a comparison of ACS and Zope and you can check it out here: http://www.zope.org/Members/tazzzzz/ACSandZope I agree with what Jimmie says in his note... I think Zope is a better platform to build on. I do believe that it is worth mention, though, that ACS has a number of pre-built components that are much more sophisticated than what we have in Zopeland today. These include ecommerce, email, personalization, and ad management. Kevin
