You are using an interesting definition of "maintaining".  While I'm
not interested in documentation or maintaining the installation story
on any platform, that is attracting new users, I'm very interested
that existing applications that use the the zope.app server remain
usable with future versions of Zope Toolkit libraries, or Zope 3 KGS
if you will.  That's what I would call maintenance.

I find it really bizarre how suddenly Zope 3 the app server has gone
from new, better, up and coming, to nearly discontinued evolutionary
dead end.
