[Zope] The name ZOPE (was RE: [Zope] Linux.com community ad)

[Loren Stafford]

I think all you need to do is change the pronunciation to "zopey" as in
"Penelope". I started pronouncing it that way before I heard that others
didn't. I thought it was the name of some Greek goddess I'd never heard of
before.

I think it's cool.
