Of course. Whoever takes over the project is of course free to make
whatever websites they want.

At the moment it still is.

Zope2 does not change rapidly in an incompatible way. The rapid
changes and all the depracation warnings are if you are using Zope3 or
Five. Something that is completely unrelated to the ZCLass issue. Many
of us have wnated to depracate or separate ZClasses for a long time,
because nobody has time to work on it. That has nothing to do with
Zope3.
