[Zope] Proposal of forking the zope@zope.org list

[complaw@hal-pc.org]

I agree with Tim.  First, splitting the list would mean that we would have to 
monitor more groups.  Second, I have learned a lot from the more sophisticated 
uses simply by keeping up with this list-group and I doubt the newbie list 
would be nearly as rich as the current list.  Third (although I don't do it 
enough) I can help the newbies with those basic questions that I used to ask 
and in some small way contribute to the group.  It is that last (important if 
not crucial) input that makes this list so attractive to the new users and thus 
enables them to get up the rather steep learning curve that Zope offers.
