What do you man by "two development paradigms"?

Please don't build a wall between Zope 2 and Zope 3 developers. Most 
"old-school" Zope 2 developers are doing development also with Zope 3 
components and Zope 3 techniques. Look at Plone 3.0 and its heavy usage of 
Zope 3
techniques...impressing. The Zope 3 development paradigms are highly 
accepted by most Zope 2 core developers...we are all sitting in the same 
boat. There is a fundamental difference in the Zope 2 and Zope 3 
architecture but little difference between the paradigms how we should 
design and write software on top of the Zope platform in the future.

The distinction between Zope 2 and Zope 3 must disappear. We must speak of 
"Zope". Everything else is counterproductive when it comes to promoting 
Zope. There is only one Zope developer community and most of us have a Zope 
2 and a Zope 3 hat on (others have a CMF or a Plone head). An artificial 
separation between Zope 2 and Zope 3 developers is undesirable in my 
opinion.
