In principle, definitely.  In practice, a lot depends on how much you want=
=20
to integrate.  The trickiest thing is probably integrating the two=20
transaction systems.  You might need to create a subclass of PEAK's=20
storage.TransactionService and modify it so it can hook into Zope's=20
transaction machinery.

All in all, I suppose it might be too much work to bother with.  For me, I=
=20
expect us to have 'peak.web' up and running soon enough (within the next=20
two months) that I'd personally rather go forward than back.  'peak.web'=20
will use Zope 3's publishing machinery, and maybe a few libraries like=20
'zope.i18n', but it won't require or use any of 'zope.app', ZCML, ZPT,=20
DTML, or any of a variety of other Zope buzzwords.

2.2.2 is the minimum requirement.
