“Zope is a next-generation Open Source application server and
portal toolkit developed by Digital Creations and a large active
community of users. It runs on nearly all UNIX platforms as well as
Windows NT and can be used with most popular web servers or its own
built in web server. Zope is written (and extensible with) Python,
a powerful object-oriented programming language, with performance
sensitive components written in C.”
“Unlike common file-based Web templating systems such as ASP or
PHP, Zope is a highly object-oriented Web development platform that
covers much more of the problem domain for Web application
developers. It provides clean separation of data, logic and
presentation, an extensible set of built-in objects and a powerful
integrated security model…”
