Zope starts under 2.1b2 on HP/UX 11.00 :)
It has lots of "X is deprecated" but it starts and the management interface
works fine.

Zope Version  Zope 2.3.1 (source release, python 1.5.2, linux2)  
Python Version  2.1b2 (#1, Apr 3 2001, 10:01:06) [GCC 2.9-hppa-991112]  
System Platform  hp-uxB  
Process Id  23123 (5)  
Running For  5 min 8 sec

Because of Zope's handful of extensions written in C, it won't just be
enough to download the binary version of Zope (compiled for Python
1.5.2.) and point it at your Python 2.0 interpreter instead; you'll
need to get the source version of Zope and build it for Python 2.0.
 
I've also found that some third-party Products use idioms that are not
accepted by Python 2.0, such as multi-argument append(), so you may
need to pester the respective developers or amend them yourself.
