‘King of Swamp Castle: Not like that, not like that! No! Stop it! Nooo!’ - Monty Python and the Holy Grail

So that’s been a great year of Zope News.
After 12 months and 22 issues the service is now visited 500+ times a day from 2000+ different hosts a month. High time to discontinue the newsletter in the current format.

Thank you for your interest and stay tuned for something completely different in 2007.
