[Zope] Zope needs this (and Dynamo has it)

[Alexander Staubo]

A colleague insightfully commented that while Dynamo has a high bullshit
factor, this is the reason it sells.

Take a look at this screen shot:

Dynamo is an expensive, closed product with a promotional web site that
smells like a million-dollar penthouse office space, replete with glass
walls and postmodern sculptures. It smells a bit funky, and the people
are possibly evil, but the product is of high quality, and it sells. And
because it sells, many people use it, and because so many people use it,
skilled developers exist in large numbers. Unfortunately, I can't say
the same of Zope.

Speaking of which, SNMP support for Zope would have been nice. Then we
could import the numbers needed to build monitors like the one featured
in the screen shot.
