Hi,
the zope3 "views" are both the "View" and the "Controller" in MVC . The 
controller part of MVC is delegated to views using request/response pattern.

concerning the model, the storage used by the model needs not be 
persisted on the server. A model can store information in RAM or in a 
cookie, ...
