Couple of questions (Warning spoilers)

Rating: Null/10 (5 November 2003)

Hi everyone I saw the movie today and really enjoyed it, but I have some plot questions.
1) The French guy (can't spell his name) just let's Trinity have Neo, he is powerful enough to capture Neo, but one little gun to the head is enough to scare him.
2) Was the machine leader who Neo encounters at the end also the Archeitect and why did the machine keep it's promise to keep the peace once Agent Smith died, couldn't it have resumed it's attack on Zion and finished the humans off.
3) How did Neo beat Smith, by merging with him? What happened to Neo, did he die, did he become part of machine city.
4) Was the real world repairable, the sky past a certain point wasn't black and dead.
5) What was with the end, with that little conversation between the Oracle and the Archeitect, were all the people going to be woken up, set free, what gives.
I would really appreciate any insight anyone has, thank you.
