I think a site about Zope 3 should ideally run Zope 3. Since there's 
indeed not much mature in the way of CMS software for Zope 3, and since 
I've seen reasonable results reached with wiki software to manage sites 
about open source projects, I figured using a Z3 wiki to manage the site
would be doable.

Then again, the sprinters apparently have a quite different idea of what 
'zope3.org' will be than myself and some others on the mailing list. 
Their goal seems to be to replace the component architecture wiki. This 
is not a very important priority to me; the wiki is only in use by a few 
core Zope 3 developers and in its present state is an anti-marketing tool.

Martijn
