The Zope learning curve might be a bit much.  It depends on what he wants to do.
I am very intersted in Zope, have it loaded on my machine, but have not been able
to get off the ground with it.  I am anxiously awaiting the O'Reilly book.  If
anyone has any good pointers to where to start with Zope, I'ld love to hear about
them.

My answer to the original post would have been that cgu is probably what you want
to look at, but Zope should be considered too.
