I pushed Plone into production last night. I’m pretty happy with the interface. I like the idea of being able to add pages easily, and not having to worry too much about design. I had some problems getting Zope’s Virtual Monster to work, but eventually got it going. Zope, in general, is the hardest easy tool I’ve used. Once you get the hang of it, it’s not too bad, it’s just VERY DIFFERENT than other tools of it’s kind. The object-orientedness of it is a huge sea change to the PHP-ish world I’m used to. Zope is Python based, and has adopted Python’s use of OOP and its”lots of great stuff in the standard library” philosophy.
So far, Python is absolutely blowing my mind. I’m very happy with it and Zope.
