What was the Zope 3 debacle exactly? I have vague memories of something like that from back in the day, but having trouble finding anything concrete.

well, it was more or less the same thing as the python3 debacle. Imagine having a big python2 project and all the cool stuff is happening in python3. You can't upgrade without substantial effort (code & testing). Now replace python2 with zope2 and python3 with zope3. You get the idea.

I honestly don't really know, and would also be curious to find out what happened exactly that made Zope almost disappear
