I don't understand this comment.

Firstly, it is quite possible to use both SQL and Zope. Secondly, the
question was if he should go completely object-oriented or store the data
relationally. The consensus so far seems to be that no matter what he
chooses, Zope is an excellent way of accessing the data.

I know SQL. I don't try to use it for vereything just because I know it.
This is simply because many things do not suit SQL.
I have seen many content management systems that store the data in a
relational database (often made with PHP, too) and they all have the same
problems that CM system made in Zope doens't have, because a SQL database is
simply not suited well to storing a website.

I use SQL withing Zope if I need to share the data with non-Zopyfiable
systems. Otherwise not. It works best that way.
