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.

It's an object oriented database, with a structure that is similar to
files and directories in an ordinary OS.

But it is a lot smarter, because the files and directories are actually
objects with different attributes and parameters.

The methods on these objects can then be called eg. from a web browser
with different parameters. But you can also use other protocols than
http like dav, ftp etc.

This is a very effective way to build web applications, and does not
need sql-object remapping as normal web apps does.

Well, that's interesting. I've never seen an explantion like
this.
Actually I think I have, and was too dumb to realize what
I was reading.

A data base with properties and methods. Cool.

I am so sure I already said this. Well, I guess I typed
too much else.
