No, Lennart, this is wrong. A site is still very much a site (ISite 
determines "site-ness", nothing else). They're still regular folders 
that contain content. The only difference between sites and folders is 
that sites are a palce where you can make local component registrations. 
This is still the same in Zope 3.3, only the constraint *where* these 
components live has changed.
