Seems that the activity on the Zope list has exploded. A lot of the questions I read in the posts have been raised many times in the past. I believe a FAQ on the Zope site is neccessary.
Do the folks at digital creations have time to set it up?

I believe this is allready under construction: http://www.zope.org/Community/Services By far from incomplete, but it is the right direction. I think Amos' FAQ tool should be utilized there somewhere, and maybe some people from this list willing to help out DC should fill it in, because it looks like Ken Manheimer (who has been charged with community communications) allready seems overloaded. -- M.J.

More generally speaking, we should be organizing the Zope documentation project. There was word of it before, but haven't heard much on it recently. In fact, the messages that I can find in my mailbox on it is people saying we should start such a project :). I'd obviously be very useful. As an example: I myself have sent some (obscure) questions to the list the week before last, and have only managed to receive an answer that confused me more (I welcomed the answer though, of course!). I sent more questions and observations last week, but haven't received answers yet (perhaps it's because I'm doing something fundamentally wrong with Zope but I'd like to hear it if that's so). Of course I'd like to see my questions answered. A FAQ would help filter out all the less obscure questions so that my obscure questions might get answers. :) So, the Zope Communication Project (hereby started if it doesn't exist yet, this is open source after all :) should make its first priority to create a fairly exhaustive FAQ. I currently have some time to invest in the ZDP (he said, tempting fate; work's slow right now, but this can change quickly). Anyway, I'll help. If only with the *questions* side of the FAQ, perhaps, but I can help. :) Initial Plan of Action for the ZDP: - Produce a fairly exhaustive FAQ, mining the mailing list for good questions and answers. - Organize the ZDP itself. :) Regards, Martijn
