*Increase* performance by rewriting in Java?  You've been reading
Sun's press releases again and, worse still, actually believing them;
don't make that mistake! :) 

I can think of any number of improvements that could be made to Zope,
but a translation into another language, with no clear idea of what
actual problem would be solved by the translation, isn't one of them.
