I don't know the size of these communities. Never tried to use Plone.
I guess that's because it is GPL, and the only site I know that uses
it is stackless.com, which is in a rather poor condition. Zope doesn't
sounds good if pronounced in Russian, but I guess the license
limitation (obligatory doc writing) was a primary concern too.

Thanks. It doesn't seem right to include <title> tag in display.pt
that doesn't have head section at all, so I've inserted
<metal:fill fill-slot="title"...
Will the new patch work ok? (attached)

Sounds reasonable. But increased availability, security and DoS
protection with mirrors is gained at a cost of administration hassle,
and server stuff is something nobody wants to deal with, because these
problems are truly endless.
