My point of view is that it isn't a question about competing with them, 
it's a question about supporting them.  When people show the initiative 
to create something -- just as you are doing now -- it would be nice to 
be rewarded by having an important role in the community.

Still, my overriding concern is the creation of more infrastructure.  
Zope.org is already 5,000% overcapacity on the responsibilities it has 
signed up for.  I'm personally against have anything new done in the 
sphere of zope.org until the situation gets under control.

However, both paragraphs above can also mean I'll support you if you 
create something.  I'd prefer that you support an existing effort in 
the community.  But if you can do better than ZopeZen and, most 
importantly, if you start producing the Zope News, then cool!
