Zope is an open source web application framework. It has three
distinct audiences:

*Users* -- individuals who use of Zope's "out of the box" features
to build websites. This audience is interested in making use
of Zope's existing array of features to create content
management solutions. They will likely make heavy use of
"through the web" scripting using DTML, Page Templates, and
Python Scripts as well as (of course) HTML and XML. They are
generally less concerned about code reuse than the speed at
which they can create a dynamic application or website.
*Developers* -- individuals who wish to extend Zope to create
highly customized solutions. This audience is likely interested
in creating highly reusable custom code that makes Zope do something
new and interesting.
*Administrators* -- individuals responsible for keeping a Zope
site running and performing installations and upgrades.

Term 'Users' mean 'End user'.
Better to use term 'content managers'.
Main Zope's roles (audiences) are:
content managers, developers, administrators.

"speed at which" should be "speed with which"
