<p class="textbold-three">A Brief History of Zope</p>
- <p class="text">The beginning of Zopes story goes something like this, in 1996, Jim Fulton
- (CTO of Zope Corporation) was drafted to teach a class on common gateway
- interface (CGI) programming, despite not knowing very much about the subject.
- CGI programming is a commonly-used web development model that allows
- developers to construct dynamic websites. On his way to the class, Jim studied
- all the existing documentation on CGI. On the way back, Jim considered what he
- didnt like about traditional, CGI-based programming environments. From these
- initial musings, the core of Zope was written while flying back from the CGI
- class.</p>
- <p class="text">Zope Corporation (then known as Digital Creations) went on to release three
- open-source software packages to support web publishing: Bobo, Document
- Template, and BoboPOS. These packages were written in a language called
- Python, and provided a web publishing facility, text templating, and an object
- database, respectively. Digital Creations developed a commercial application
- server based on their three opensource components. This product was called
- Principia. In November of 1998, investor Hadar Pedhazur convinced Digital
- Creations to open source Principia. These packages evolved into what are now
- the core components of Zope 2.</p>
- <p class="text">In 2001, the Zope community began working on a component architecture for
- Zope, but after several years they ended up with something much more: Zope 3.
- While Zope 2 was powerful and popular, Zope 3 was designed to bring web
- application development to the next level.</p>
