Ok, we all hate the damage that Zope 3 did and I have no problem to call
one of the x Zope Webframeworks "Bluebream", but I would like to save
the trademark from vanishing completely.

What we have now are a bunch of Webframeworks built upon the ZTK. One of
these frameworks is called Zope 2 for historical reasons. So if you tell
the Zope story, you might end up with a story without a hero:

We have the ZTK in the center and some other peripheral libraries and we
have Grok, Zope2, Bluebream, BFG, bobo and Humpty Dumpty, all great
frameworks. We can even call them Zope Frameworks, but where is Zope in
this story? What is Zope?

Possible solution:
If all of the ZTK is in the namespace zope someday, why don't we call
the ZTK "Zope", as it seems to be the heart of all these webframeworks?

Then we can tell a story where there are different cool webframeworks
based on Zope (former ZTK) which is a well defined set of libraries to
do component-based web-development.
