Gary's, Mine, Tres', Simon's, Benji's and others I could find if I  
trolled through the thread, which I won't.

Continuing to talk about Zope 3 is harmful.  Saying that Zope 3 is a  
dead end is also harmful.  Saying that Zope 3 is being renamed to Zope  
Toolkit with some things left out and with some possible Zope 3  
project that may or may not support the bits left out is at best too  
confusing.  Simply saying that we're renaming Zope 3 to the Zope  
Toolkit is clean and simple.  The fact that the contents of the  
toolkit will change over time as parts are gradually deprecated or  
receive less care is a detail that doesn't have to be part of the main  
message.  At worst, the message Gary suggests is imprecise. It isn't  
inaccurate.  Of course, Gary made these points more eloquently than I  
just did.
