I can't speak for any of those except the one I've been involved
with - the zope book. Chris M. decided to start it on plope.com
for two reasons:  1) zope.org at that point was really unusably
slow, and had been for some time. You just could not get anything
done.
2) alpha-testing some modifications to the Backtalk product.

Actually IIRC, #2 was an afterthought.

What is there currently on zope.org that doesn't fall under "software and
documentation"?
