We had this discussion about the future of ZClasses already several
time. Point taken but I have little interest discussing the same topic
over and over again. ZClasses have been deprecated in Zope 2.10 and now
they are gone. Users of ZClasses have enough options and a lot of time
for modernizing their apps. We don't want and need to support any cruft
until doomsday.
