[snipped the rest]

Just to give some status concerning ZDP effort merging with Zope.org.
As Maik said, it would be good to work closely to build documentation and 
knowledge sharing on Zope.org. Solutions are 1/ syndication or 2/ moving 
content to one central place.
Also I agree the ZDP mailing list is no more needed.
Personnaly, I am 100 % ready to contribute to the effort with 
ideas/code/documentation, but I have abandoned the original ZBook initiative 
since it did not work (maybe the format was not well suited
for a community growing very fast with people that don't have time to write 
structured documentation). A weblog format would definitely work better.

Best regards,
