Hi Carl and welcome to Zope3!  The mailing list is a bit quiet so feel free to 
post questions.  There often is a lag of a week or so in getting an answer, in 
my experience, but they usually come.

I've been working with Zope 2.x for 4-5 years and Zope 3 for only 6 mos, and 
man, is it different!  Lots of fun but also frustrating in figuring out how to 
do something.  I've had to spend lots of time in the code, rather than 
inundating the mailing list with what are probably simple questions.  Zope3 is 
at the early stages of significant documentation, IMHO, but we're doing our 
best to improve that.

I'd be interested in hearing a brief overall description of the project, to 
see how it might fit into Zope3.

No problem, it wasn't that long.  Glad you've found us - the community could 
use the fresh viewpoint.
