I'd beg to differ, here...

I've had seven years' experience working with *nix, Perl, Java, various 
RDBMS's and backend web development environments, and had only heard 
Zope mentioned a few times in passing until I took on my current 
position, around 2 months ago, with a company who are using it 
extensively on their intranet and extranet sites. I've since mentioned 
Zope to friends and associates who work in the IT arena, to be met each 
time with a blank stare - Zope is still a strange unknown animal to 
many, even in the IT world.
