My bet is that Pylons is the next big thing.
One of the goals behind Zope 3 has been to remedy the "world by itself" problem in Zope 2 and thus Zope 3 is much more Pythonic and plays nicely with others in the Python world such as Paste, WSGI, etc.. If you're interested in trying out Zope 3, check out grok (http://grok.zope.org/). Grok does the job of making the Zope 3 learning curve as gradual as Python such that you only need to learn enough to do what you're trying to do at the moment.
