We should get to the point: if some people depend on ZClasses then they 
should
take over some responsibility in maintaining them in future releases. It 
can not be
that a "feature" regarded as obsolete (from the majority) and almost 
unmaintained and
untouched since  ages holds up further releases. I agree with Jim that they 
should be
officially deprecated - means they could be removed in Zope 2.10. We could 
leave them
longer if they should work in further releases without further work. If 
there are serious
problems in  further releases with ZClasses holding up a new release we 
should kick them.
So if you depend on ZClasses....learn how they are implemented and maintain 
them in the
future. But from the prospective of limited resource it is not reasonable 
to spend much
time on ZClasses in the future.
