BTW, we discussed this quiet heavily on #zope3-dev.
I think at the end Jim and I agreed that the zope.* namespace should follow
and keep following the current Zope 3 style guide. Other namespaces, such as
zc, z3c, lovely, etc can choose their own style guide but must be consistent
within the namespace. While Jim never acknowledged this final wording, I
consider silent as consent. :-)
