My experience with the Python development process is very good.

   New versions contain few problems which are rapidly eliminated.

I will switch to Python 2.1 (now using Zope with Python 2.0)
immediately when it becomes available (has nice
features, I fought for since a long time (nested namespaces)).

You will only be affected for Zope 2.4. I think, it will
take several month, before it is final.
