zope.org home page content
It would be great to make some updates to some of the text and top
level pages on zope.org.

I would suggest something like this for the main content:

Welcome to the Zope Community site
--------------------------------------------------
Zope 2 is a complete application server. It includes an embedded
object database, a declarative security model, and a publisher that
can serve content via HTTP, FTP and WebDAV. It has a mature and
robust code base that has been in existence since 1999.

Zope 3 is a from the ground up rewrite, and focuses on using the Zope
3 component architecture to allow developers to build truly
extensible, highly testable web applications.

Zope is open source and is written in Python, the dynamic object-
oriented programming language.


Zope For
------------

(I'm not sure what to do here, hopefullly get these links updated
over time? or scratch this section? some of these links are really
old. The target groups could be reworked if we want to keep this
section, and it should be listed once for Zope 2 content and again
for Zope 3 content)

What You can do on Zope.org
----------------------------------------

(I would delete this section. Having users be able to join a web site
and contribute content was novel a few years ago, but is generally
taken for granted today.)


Zope Training
------------------

(This should just link to the training page, the note about sending
training announcements to webmaster@zope.org could be put on that
page. BTW only the CIGNEX link works, all the training links that
point to zope.com are 404)

Plone Training
--------------------

(The Plone web team is sufficiently mobilized to be able to list
their own training announcements).

New Content:

We should list some applications written in Zope, and some
organizations using it. Plone, Silva, others?

I've just changed the front page a few days ago to make it look not a
bit less empty.
http://mail.zope.org/pipermail/zope-web/2006-October/004345.html

Please coordinate with Martijn Faassen on the contents planned.

All i can say is, that there will be no (new) content on that page if
none exists to be put there. People even got too lazy to send training
announcements recently, so ...
