We started mostly from scratch, with various successes and failures  
as we tried to reuse large-scale UI/framework.  I'd say that we've  
generally been happier and more successful reusing lots of small  
components and small-scale UI bits, versus large "framework" things  
like the ZMI (others with whom I work, feel free to disagree ;-).  I  
regard the "smaller zope 3" and "eliminate zope.app" movements as  
signs that this is a shared feeling.
