I dont see this as an issue for Zope (taken as a whole). There is no
problem with other developers releasing GPL products for Zope, as long
as they do not create a combined distribution of Zope+TheirProduct.
Separate rpms is enough.
I agree that GPL-compatability would be better for some of Zope's
components which are useful outside of Zope (ZPublisher, ZODB, ZEO,
etc)

If a future version of Zope was released under GPL, I (and I guess
many others) would *need* to create a fork from the last non-GPL
version. This is to nobodys benefit.
