[Zope3-dev] Visionaire! (All your problems, solved)

[Stefan H. Holek]

I like this a whole lot. This is *much* better than diluting the Zope  
brand (Zed is dead, baby). If people really say things like "Oh, I  
can't use zope.testbrowser because I'm not using Zope" it's time to  
school them, not to ruin our brand: "You only need the Zope CA for  
that, dude, so stop whining."

Zope already worked when people like the RoR creators attended  
primary school. The term "Zope" having a bad rap in some circles is  
not Zope's fault, and can not be fixed by calling it Zed (to the  
contrary, I'd think).

IMO,
Stefan
