In the daily section, in "Jon Corbet's first report" (top news item at the
moment). 

Here's the blurb about Zope:

 I also saw a demo of Digital Creations' new Zope-based "portal toolkit." 
 That is one slick system, chances are you'll start seeing sites based on
 this stuff popping up before too long.  There is a whole set of
 facilities for discussions and such, while allowing the site owner to
 control just how much access each user is given.  The new WebDAV and FTP
 modes make it much easier to edit Zope content - no longer are users
 restricted to using a browser window.  Overall a very nice package.  It's
 in an alpha testing mode now, with a general release to happen in early
 June. 

 Digital Creations also had the first Zope 2.0 release, which adds a lot
 of new capabilities, and a number of long-awaited scalability features.
