Zope currently exports a big collection of Python objects, including
security information, attributes, and a lot of other things.  The only
way to read this file is to use Zope.  It is intended to make it
possible to precisely reconstitute a set of objects.

A static snapshot would be a collection of HTML and graphics files,
intended to be served up by a simple web server.  It would not be
useful to try to re-import this kind of file back into Zope; all of the
metadata would be lost.  Its usefulness would be the fact that, using a
server such as Apache, the pages could be served at a rate of thousands
of hits per second.
