:-) Well, just showing people that they don't have to stick an index.php in 
every single sub-directory of their site is a pretty nice way to get them 
interested.

Second, having a great OOP language like Python is another plus

And finally, the fact that Zope is a breeze to install and is available for 
different OS's as well is another plus.

The only thing that might make people suspicious are performance (since I 
understand most of Zope is built in Python instead of being compiled for 
the given platform), and having to learn Python and DTML/ZPT, but it's not 
that big a deal.

BTW, I found that playing with PHITE helped me a lot to understand how Zope 
worked and what added value it offered compared to eg. PHP.

Fred.
