Zope2 4.0 would imply some sort of upgrade path from Zope 3 to this.
That's as confusing as anything else and would lead to the question
what happened to Zope2 3.0.

Since we don't market Zope2 anymore, I think there's actually much
less confusion from this than we'd fear. It's just an internal version
number used in some buildout files, not something that has any
particular meaning.
