Great, now the million dollar question. What's the best way to get my arms around this beast? Should I start with the Zope book? Are there good tutorials or white papers out on the web somewhere? Gary Quoting Lennart Regebro (lennart@regebro.nu):

I have to integrate several smaller internal websites into a larger intranet. At the same time, I want to create a site that is easy to add content to. The primary users are several engineers, and I would like to set up a core structure that will easily allow me to add content in the form of white papers, downloadable powerpoint presentations with abstracts, FAQ's etc. without having to turn all of my engineers into html experts.
From the little I know, it sounds like Zope may be the ideal solution...am I on the right track?

I personally found the Zope Book to be pretty useful, and I certainly would recommend it as a starting point. However, I would recommend that you spend some time lurking on this mailing list if you really want to learn Zope. This mailing list has been the best resource for learning Zope that I have seen. You get a good overview of what's possible, and plenty of useful examples that you can "borrow." Jason On Fri, 2002-02-01 at 15:14, Learned wrote:

Also get yourself onto irc://irc.openprojects.net and join #zope. Ask questions or lurk, but you'll generally get an informed answer. You might also have a bit of fun while using Zope. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jason Earl" <jason.earl@simplot.com> To: "Learned" <learned@talentsinc.net> Cc: <zope@zope.org> Sent: Friday, February 01, 2002 11:33 PM Subject: Re: [Zope] Is Zope Right?

Zope Book is good but contains some factual errors (not many). I recommend that you download the archive of this conference for 2000 and 2001, import the archive into your email client and use it as fulltext search reference. Invaluable (after your read Zope Book)! -- Milos Prudek
