I agree with this. I remember having to get to used to the term 
'Product' myself, as it has a lot of implications that don't make much 
sense for what they are -- extensions of Zope or applications on top of 
Zope. Now I'm so used to it I know what it means and have hard time 
understanding feeling puzzled about, but I do remember I thought it a 
really odd term when I first encountered it.
