[Zope3-dev] Rid the term 'product'

[Peter Simmons]

I think it would definitly be better to use a normal word/name and not 
use a bastardised word/name that just makes Zope more special and 
further away from main stream which won't help in the long term.

Also whatever is come up with a major thing to remember is to write 
decent docs for the exisiting zope comuinity and also for zope newbies, 
i..e how to write a 'Product' in Zope 3 that would explain the new term 
and 'how to extend zope'

extension seems the most natural word for my mind another that is used 
for similar things is plug-in which tends to imply anything from a 
simple helper script to interfacing two seperate applications

anyway my two cents :-)
