Just want to introduce a set of alias into the default installation oodb,
and change all documentation. This will not break any existing apps. You
should known how painful a newcomer learn zope just because of the existing
syntax.

Currently, many things like the automaticaly generated <base> tag, the
background color, text size etc were build into the source code. Also, the
management interfaces were partically hard-coded in python, while possible,
i sggest these can be moved to dtml and allow more flexability.
And there are many things can be done, but not make into a product or how
to. I origianlly hope to learn from PTK, but it grow too complicate for a
newbee to follow. Zope does not just for the developer and expert, it should
make oridinally web author feel easy.
