I proudly announce the birth of the usergroup for Dutch speaking Zope users. As they will probably mostly be from Belgium and the Netherlands (though the python newsgroup shows you never know :-) I called it Zope in the low countries (in dutch: Zope in de lage landen) The most important aim of the usergroup are: - to provide mutual assistence for Zope users on a regional level, - to be able to provide institutional decision makers with a guarantee that Zope is not some obscure and unreliable open source product but has more users and (hopefully) a great many succesfull implementations nearby. There is a discussion list coming (ZOPE-NL), but not yet operational. Details will be on the web site. To keep things focused, ZOPE-NL will be no local replacement for the regular zope lists, but a discussion forum for regional matters only. For the time being, if you're interested, please visit the (rudimentary) site at http://sw.fsw.leidenuniv.nl/cgi-bin/WebSite.exe/zopegroep Warning: it is completely in dutch. Rik Hoekstra
