Re: [Zope-CMF] CMF 1.5.3 beta?

2005-08-02 Thread Jens Vagelpohl
Alright, it's out now. I probably spent 90% of the last two hours  
fighting zope.org which was near-unresponsive...


Anyway, since this is a beta the usual precautions apply:

- No non-critical-bugfix checkins on the CMF 1.5 branch until CMF  
1.5.3 final is out


- Please help test the release, especially the changes shown below  
that have flown in since the last release.


CMF 1.5.3 will be the release Plone 2.1 final is based on (if nothing  
bad happens in the meantime), it will see very widespread use, so  
good quality control is important. I am hoping we can have a quick  
beta cycle with just this beta release. Please test! ;)

Bugs Fixed

- Changed the INSTALL_SVN instructions to conform to the new branch
  and tag naming scheme instituted for the subversion repository.

- Apply an interim fix for slow pathwalking implementation in
  development mode on Windows (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/ 
CMF/367)

  Note that a better fix would be to leverage pywin32 APIs for
  file / directory monitoring.

- FSObject.manage_doCustomize() was broken for folderish objects  
on Zope

  2.8 because manage_permission requires a context to work.
  (see http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/368)

- CMFCore/FSPropertiesObject and CMFCore/FSMetadata: Removed a  
wrongly

  inserted DeprecationWarning in the FSPropertiesObject class and
  put it into the FSMetadata class. We are not deprecating .props
  files, but .properties and .security.

- Change CVS checkout documentation to their equivalent Subversion
  instructions

- In CMFSetup, make sure to give special treatment to both CVS and
  .svn folders where this is necessary (e.g. to implicitly skip  
them

  when importing profiles)

- Made sure FSDVTest always deletes its temporary folder on  
tearDown.

  (http://www.zope.org/Collectors/CMF/106)

- Fix DefaultWorkflowDefinition bug on isActionSupported() for the
  keywargs support to reflect DCWorkflowDefinition changes. Add a
  test case for this definition as well.

  Others

- CMFCatalogAware: reindexObjectSecurity() now always reindexes the
  catalog objects without changing their catalog uid. This is  
useful

  for third-party code that indexes objects with special uids.

[Zope-CMF] CMF 1.5.3-beta released

2005-08-02 Thread Jens Vagelpohl

The CMF developer community and Zope Corporation are pleased to
announce the release of version 1.5.3-beta of the Zope Content  
Management

Framework (CMF). This release is intended for testing purposes only;
we do not recommend deploying it to production servers.  The final
release of version 1.5.3 is expected to land within about 10 days.

What is the CMF?

The Zope Content Management Framework provides a set of
services and content objects useful for building highly
dynamic, content-oriented portal sites.  As packaged, the
CMF generates a site much like the Zope.org site.  The CMF is
intended to be easily customizable, in terms of both the
types of content used and the policies and services it
provides.

Where do I get it?

Download it from http://zope.org/Products/CMF/CMF-1.5.3-beta

2005-08-01 Thread Jens Vagelpohl
If we have a go for the beta I suggest cutting the tag and  
publishing the release tomorrow morning, about 9am british time.  
That way zope.org won't have traffic from the Americas, making it  
marginally more responsive ;)





Great, thanks! I am planning to release Plone 2.1 final in 2 weeks.  
Would be convenient to have CMF 1.5.3 final by then.


Yes, if we can keep the beta cycle short and the changeset  
manageable. With everyone helping out testing the changed bits that  
came in since 1.5.2 and no big isssues arising a single beta can be  
sufficient.




I'm here, I'm here jumps up and down.

If you'd dis Plone a little less I am sure more of us would chime  
in more often ;-)


Don't tell me you're scared of certain peoples' personal opinion... :P

 However I'd like to urge the Plone guys (95% of which don't bother to
 read or post in this list) to move their collective butts and actually
 implement forward-compatibility in Plone itself rather that, once more,
 tying the release of a base software to their own schedule.

I'm on here too, though pretty quiet.  I've even been subscribed here longer 
than I have been subscribed to plone-devel.

As stated, the only important issues are minor bugfixes in CMF 1.5.  We'd be 
OK without them, but everybody would be better off with them.  Maintaining 
our own monkeypatch set with every svn fix to CMF is a bit untenable.

 Florent: Quick heads-up to me when you're done with your changes,  
 please.

Ok I'm done I think.

Heads up for Plone devs (but we were discussing it on #plone):
The change I made impacts the signature of CatalogTool.reindexObject,
which until recently Plone was overloading.
