I saw this firsthand as a developer in a fairly large deployment involving half a dozen programmers. The first thing we did was create a lengthy script to parameterize adding new content types to Zope. The team had significant expertise in client-server development using C++ and Motif. Several other technology stacks were considered for publishing to the web, such as Visual Studio and Java. When Zope came along it was all aboard. The project lead was a world-class software engineer.
