+====================
+eZ Components 2007.2
+====================
+
+:Author: Derick Rethans
+:Date: 2007-12-18 14:03
+
+The development team is happy to release the fifth major version of the eZ
+Components: version 2007.2.
+
+New Components
+==============
+
+In this release there are two new components.
+
+Tree
+----
+
+A component that allows you create, manipulate and query tree structures.
+There are several backends available, all with different characteristics
+regarding performance. Two tie-ins follow with this extension:
+TreeDatabaseTiein that stores tree structures in a database (recommended) and
+TreePersistentObjectTiein that allows you to store the data belonging to the
+tree structure as a persistent object.
+
+*Note:* The Tree component requires PHP **5.2.1**.
+
+WebDAV
+------
+
+The Webdav component enables you to set up a WebDAV enabled server, to let user
+upload, modify and download files, through HTTP. The current implementation is
+compatible with `RFC 2518`_ but may be extended through plugins to also support
+other standards.
+
+*Note:* The WebDAV component requires PHP **5.2.1**.
+
+.. _`RFC 2518`: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2518.txt
+
+Other Improvements
+==================
+
+Other major new features include better OpenID support, APC and memcache
+backends to the Cache component, a Unix syslog format writer for EventLog,
+stacked bar charts and ODO meter charts in the Graph component, and more
+SMTP authentication mechanisms (DIGEST-MD5, CRAM-MD5, NTLM and LOGIN).
+
+All in all the development team addressed 63 defects, implemented 42 new
+features and completed 12 tasks - in total 117 issues.
+
+Upgrading
+=========
+
+You can find downloads of the whole bundle on the download_ page and updated
+documentation on the documentation_ page. Please note that the PHP requirements
+are now PHP **5.1.6**.
+
+Users of the PEAR installer can upgrade to the new version by issuing::
