The idea of release code names adds a little spice.  Most people like 
spices on their food, so why not on their software too?  But the naming 
scheme really has to be based on the Tarzan series.  Jim's a Tarzan fan. 
:-)  "Zope 3.3 Jane", etc.

An idea that's bubbling to the top in this discussion is that each 6 
month Zope release should include not just new software but also 
tangible improvements to the community, such as web site improvements, 
new documentation, and a changing of the guard (so that no one is 
assigned to write the Zope Weekly News for the rest of their life.)

Well, zope.com has screencasts.  The web site is also a lot less bland 
than zope.org.  Unlike zope.org, it's easy for Zope Corporation to 
justify the expense of maintaining zope.com.
