 From the wild-guess-dept:

I know personally about 50 people who make a living working with Zope 
full time in Brazil. No more than 5 of them have ever written a Zope 
product of their own. Many have tried to use ZClasses, with varying 
degrees of success.

I also know a much larger community who uses Zope, but not exclusively, 
and none of them would ever take the time to learn enough Zope to 
develop a product, although some have played with ZClasses. All of them 
have ASP or PHP experience that they can use with Zope. For them, ZPT 
is worse than DTML, because ZPT forces them to use more Python, and 
they still think that learning Python is difficult or not worthwhile, 
and they have the terrible habit of embedding business logic in their 
pages.

We have a mission to bring them into the light, but first we must go 
and talk to them. Zope3-dev is not the right forum.
