Yes, Zope X3 is production quality.

I agree. I think there will never be a Zope 3 that is backward-compatible. It 
would take a huge amount of work to provide such a layer. Compatibility will 
come through a layer that interfaces Zope 2 and Zope 3, such as Five. In fact 
I think Five will become *the* one.

Note: Not all Zope 3 developers share this view with me and I am not 
expressing the opinion of the Zope 3 community here, but only my own.

To answer the original question, if you do not want to build a plain Web site 
or CMS, then you should definitely have a look at Zope X3, since it is a very 
nice framework to develop Web applications with.
