There's still a chance to convince people before monday, I imagine:

What about renaming Zope.App to:

zc.zope

Currently the 'Zope' name confuses many people into thinking everything under
'Zope' is Zope specific. Perhaps we should exploit this obviously insane
and deluded belief that something named 'Zope' is about 'Zope' and rename 
'App' to 'Zope'. :)
