great point.  It is challenging to follow the thread of old products to
updated or replacements.
One of my earlier points was to provide category information on the Product
page to group similar products.  This exists now when you submit products to
zope.org, but not enough is done with this info.

In order to facilitate more collaborative support and development of the
"good" products, each zProduct container could have a place for "Support
Team" to volunteer time, for people to document patches, links to related
projects/products.
We dont have to squeeze everything on a single page.  A table displaying
types of additional suuport information for people to read would go a long
way to address scalability.

And I agree with another point that screen shots go a long way to make up
for poor documentation.  One space for the author, and one space for
"support".
hmmm...Recruit Zope newbies to do screen shots for Zopistas that dont want
do this for their products.  ;)    'I would do this for a great product that
is underdocumented'

some of this is sourceforge-like.  But that may be the reason Zope products
are moving away from zope.org.

Alan is doing some great stuff on Zopelabs. What could we do to complement
that effort?
