Me. :)

I was planning to work on getting buildout woring with Python 3 (if it
isn't done by then).

I'd be up for at least brainstorming a couple of topics:

- Better integration between webob and ztk.  We're doing more and more
  bobo projects and I want to integrate our bobo apps with ztk.  I
  really want to get back to the bozo project and maybe someone can
  help with that,

- Simplifying the ZTK and/or blue bream.

  When we set out to build Zope 3, our mission was to:

  - Provide or support the same functionality that was in Zope 2.
  - Provide extreme fine-grained customization support, because people
    had been asking for that.

  These goals let us to build a fairly complex system.  Further, we
  over applied the component architecture, in part to prove that it
  could provide the fine grained customization we thought people
  wanted.

  I think there's a lot that's good in the ztk and I'd like to see if
  we can make it more usable.

  Note that I'm absolutely *not* talking about packaging. :)
