[Zope3-Users] Is zope3 dead?

[Alek]

Anyway, still both the list traffic and wiki traffic seem to be much lower
than eg. one year ago.
 I'm glad the development goes on, but publishing info about new releases of
Known Good Sets would be nice - otherwise the 1sttimers (or people like me,
who haven't worked with zope for some time) don't know about that.... \

Warm Regards,
Alek.
