[Zope] Where to Begin

[Farrell, Troy]

Start with the Zope Book

It should be a good intro.  It sounds like you've setup zope already, so
skip a few chapters.

Welcome.

Greetings-

I would like to learn Zope, but am having trouble getting over the initial
learning curve.  I have heard that Zope offers a great way to create a
web-based application and is python friendly.  I have programmed for about
20 years now, was able to learn the mechanics of C++ (though I have yet to
have anyone convince me it was worth the effort), have been using Python for
a couple of years, and have run through the Zope tutorial.  I feel I'm
ready, but -- like the dazed freshman on the first day of classes -- don't
know the 'next step'.

Should I shell out the $$ for the new "Programming Python" book? Do I go out
and look at Zope Websites and look at the source code?  Any help and/or
pointers would be appreciated.
