[Zope] ANN: Perl For Zope

[Phil Harris]

Seconded,

Surely for most purposes the language used to implement is irrelevant.  Code
in whatever you want, stick PHP/Smalltalk/whatever language  into Zope if it
means more people can use it, and save me having to write my own stuff ;)

The important thing is the framework!
