-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 On behalf of Zope Corporation and the Zope community I am pleased to announce the release of Zope 2.8.9.1. You can download the sources from "http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.8.9.1/", http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.8.9.1
This bugfix release corrects a problem introduced in 2.8.9, which prevented starting Zope in "background" / "daemonized" mode. New features of Zope 2.8.x - ZODB 3.4 with MVCC (multi version concurrency control) support. MVCC solves nearly every problem with ZODB read-conflict errors which is very important for high-traffic Zope sites. - Extension Classes were rewritten as Python new-style classes making all features of Python new-style classes available in Zope objects. This includes support for cyclic garbage collection. - Integration of Zope 3 technologies through Five (see http://codespeak.net/z3/five/) More Information For more information on what is new in this release, see the CHANGES.txt files for the release: "http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.8.9.1/CHANGES.txt", http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope/2.8.9.1/CHANGES.txt See also: "http://www.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/Zope2.8/OverView" http://www.zope.org/Wikis/DevSite/Projects/Zope2.8/OverView For more information on the available Zope releases, guidance for selecting the right distribution and installation instructions, please see: "http://www.plope.com/Books/2_7Edition/InstallingZope.stx", http://www.plope.com/Books/2_7Edition/InstallingZope.stx Reporting Bugs Please report all the bugs you have found to the Zope bugtracker: "http://collector.zope.org/Zope", http://collector.zope.org/Zope Supported Python versions At this time the only **supported** and **recommended** Python versions are 2.3.5 and 2.3.6. Using Python 2.4.X is **not supported** and **not recommended** at this time. Python 2.4.X will be supported when a security audit takes place. This means that you are using Python 2.4 + Zope 2.8 at **your own risk**. This warning also applies to binary packages that install Zope packages ogether with a system wide Python 2.4 installation (e.g. Fedora, SuSE...). Such installations are in general not supported. In addition there some third-party products and Python packages that don't work with Python 2.4 and can cause trouble when using Python 2.4. - -- =================================================================== Tres Seaver +1 540-429-0999 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Palladion Software "Excellence by Design" http://palladion.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGDCIL+gerLs4ltQ4RAjV8AJ4qc4gChSxhoDQC2E+l+5UbbTr2kgCgiDZf f23x570Y4wNvsWcS55QZ8+o= =CNr8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Zope-Announce maillist - Zope-Announce@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce Zope-Announce for Announcements only - no discussions (Related lists - Users: http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope Developers: http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
