Can you try to describe this without "2 or 3" in "Zope *"? I guess not, right?
I really don't care about how it is called, but I'm sure we need some naming convention and since we have one, I don't see any reason to change this. You also use the term "Plone 3.0" which you implie that we know that you mean the Plone which uses Zope 3 components. You are respecting the postifx 3.0 in the Plone world but not for Zope? why? I'm a little confused and don't understand why you are lobbing for such a renaming and at the same time you are using this terms so heavy.
