More interviews like the one with Paul F. DuBois at http://europython.zope.nl/interviews/.
There's an interview with Itamar Shtull-Trauring, an interview with Paul Everitt, and an interview with Steve Alexander & Stephan Richter.
From the interview with Steve and Stephan, some cool stuff on Zope 3:
EuroPython: What is Zope 3?
StephanR: In short, a total rewrite of Zope based on the lessons learned from Zope 2. But I think Zope 3 is more. It is an opportunity for the community to give their input and and to build a system that opens Zope to a totally new audience.
One of my goals for Zope 3 is to make it a Web OS (to steal Mark Pratt's words). I imagine Zope 3.0 will ship with several servers by default (IMAP, SMTP, POP3, SOAP, XML-RPC, HTTP and FTP).
SteveA: What is Zope 3? "The most beautiful piece of large software I've had the privilege to work on :-)". It has a very elegant architecture, a very high level of quality, in part due to the pervasive unit tests. In a way, Zope 3 is like any other object oriented system; it provides a way of representing what people find important about the world.
