I already spoke with Philipp on IRC about this, but for the record,  
and speaking personally, and very arguably selfishly: -1.

I think it will place too much burden on the small group of Zope 3  
developers, some (many?) of whom do not develop or use Zope 2.

Yes, I understand the corresponding response is that Zope 2 devs  
would theoretically contribute more to Zope 3.  If the merge happens,  
I suppose we'll see if Zope 2 "pollutes" Zope 3, doesn't affect it,  
or helps  it.  Arguing about the future is a tough job.
