Hello Zopists|Zopers|Zope Monkeys, I thought of a great site idea requarding Zope, and please tell me if this is already out there. The site would have people's resumes that are zopists, and promote zope for companies that might be curious or looking for something other than IIS. Basically everyone would have an account and can post their resume, and potential employeers can view these, much like monster.com, yet free. Also there would be basically info on Zope and how it is so great and awesome, and info on opensource and why it is so good. Basically try to sell Zope to companies and employeers so they may think to give Zope a shot, as alot of companies feel disillusioned with IIS and all that Microsoft promises ('specially after this other new IIS worm). Also a nice side effect to help with the "selling" of Zope to employeers is just looking at resumes, in that they can look at how talented and experience many of us have in the IT/programming world. I mean if someone has a nice resume background that will make an employeer interested, the addition of Zope on there will not hurt and may arouse curiosity as to why they are working with Zope. Please let me know what you think, and if there is already a site out there that has this, I apologize and would like to see it. Thanks, Chris Humphries Systems Administrator CD3 Storage Systems, Inc. ps -> with the help (alot) of rdmurray, we successfully developed a zope e-com site. *NOT SPAM* discgear.fcgnetwork.net is the site, and will be replacing discgear.com after I change the DNS info. I am a perl cgi/apache developer turned to python and zope (with apache still, heh). Well i rambled on long enough, thanks for your time. Have a nice day :)

So it's a job site. Ive been putting jobs on ZopeZen.org for a while now, but I just don't think there is the demand yet (http://www.zopezen.org/Jobs). This includes pulling from Monster.com and Dice. Its very rare somebody is looking for a mainly Zope developer its always one item in a list of every technology and acronym people can think of. As to putting resumes up, since zopezen will soon be using the CMF, putting a resume on line and putting up a resource area shouldn't be too hard...

Any site with "zen" on the home page is cool :) Cheers. -- Andy McKay.
Andy, my twapence worth: the most useful thing i can think of would be a HowTo classification & rating system. i've read lots of zope HowTo's and many of them are very useful, but i still don't feel i have as good an overview as i could have. a flexible classification index might, e.g. resemble Casey Duncan's DocumentLibrary index stuff. a rating system might resemble your own python cookbook rating stuff. cheers, Garry On 19 Sep 2001, at 8:25, Andy McKay wrote: From: "Andy McKay" <andym@ActiveState.com> To: <zope@zope.org> Subject: Re: [Zope] Great Zope Site Idea?
