Where did you ask for volunteers? I don't remember seeing in on
zope-web, but I could have missed it or just forgot.

My attitude has always been, and is still: Build it and they will
come. We don't need content, we need a site. Besides, the current
state is, and has for a long time been, almost worse than having no
site at all, and definitely worse than having a couple of microsites
even if these have almost no content.

If there is one page, then that's enough. Hence, there should have
been a zodb.zope.org by now.
