[Zope] Enhydra anyone?

[Hung Jung Lu]

Hi,

Is there any comparison between Enhydra (Java-based open-source
application server) and Zope (Python-base open-source application
server)?

I guess Zope and Enhydra are colliding head-on. :) Can anyone
give a little bit more background to Enhydra?

Zope site used to have a page about comparisons (like with
PHP), now I cannot find that page.

Having worked with Java (and previously with C++), I must say
that I don't have a positive opinion about Java. I know Enhydra
has this "open source" thingy and even tries its best at painting
"worldwide developer hall of fame" stuff, but it seems kind of
corny. I just don't think you can do open source well enough
with a language like Java which was designed by the corportate
and for the corporate.

It's not that Zope is excellent, it's not. But Python's CP4E
(computer programming for everyone) approach eventually will
make it longer lasting than anything else, (especially after
Python 2 comes out) and I just don't see how Java can
survive in the long run. As for Zope, I guess in the long
run it will need a major re-work, otherwise it will lost
the competitive edge.
