Hi Paul,

I would rather use Zope3/Bluebream than Zope2 any day.  

Another suggestion is that you can use Grok (http://grok.zope.org).  Grok 
is based on Zope3 and ZTK except it allows you to rapidly create a zope 
application with the need to write zcml all the time.  Take a look, its 
very promising and I have finished one project that's in production using 
grok and multiple relational and ZODB databases.  Grok is become even 
more popular with Plone development through the five.grok package.  You 
should definitely take a look.

Cheers,
