Just checking... do you really mean "googles", or is that in your mind a synonym for "search"?



I need
to know whether zope is good for that job.


For which part of it? The web part, or the searching part? It's not likely sufficient for the searching part, since it doesn't include database interfaces other than to its own ZODB. What proprietary database is involved?

I think the guy might like to know what Zope is. I went to an IBM all day once, can't even remember the name of their "web services". At smoke breaks would compare notes with other attendees. I'm not sure we ever understood, but we all agreed the problem was "undefined terms" which I call organic buzz words.

Zope is like that to me.  I ask what is it and the answer
sounds like "Oh, it's oierbv for the zxcvioupo of 7cvn^djh'.

Now understand, I know what very well what Python, Apache, PhP,
MySQL, IE and javascript do.  I just don't know what Zope
does.

And if the answer is going contain phrases like "brings together"
or "sits on top of", don't bother. :-)
