Zope Controller GUI 1.1.1 (Mac OS X) released with source
by Richard Jones 18 Sep '01

18 Sep '01

Bizar Software is pleased to make available a new release of their Zope Controller GUI for Mac OS X. This release should be considered a development release - it's only been tested very lightly. This release includes the source and removes the external start script. Yay on both counts! The Zope Controller is a Graphical User Interface for Mac OS X which allows user-friendly control of a Zope server on the local machine. This is a modified version of the GUI controller we will ship with the next version of our Bizar Shop software product. The modification involves the removal of some Shop-specific code that simply doesn't apply to Zope. Currently, only the Mac OS X version is available. Windows Real Soon (next week, we hope).

Zope Controller GUI 1.1.0 (Mac OS X) released
by Richard Jones 17 Sep '01

17 Sep '01

Bizar Software is pleased to make available a first release of their Zope Controller GUI for Mac OS X. This release should be considered a development release - it's only been tested very lightly. This is a modified version of the GUI controller we will ship with the next version of our Bizar Shop software product. The modification involves the removal of some Shop-specific code that simply doesn't apply to Zope. Currently, only the Mac OS X version is available, and unfortunately only in binary form. Potential users *must* read the license (hey, it's really short) and the installation instructions! The code will be released under an open-source license (very much like the binary release license) just as soon as I figure how to do that sanely. Definitely will be coming though!

exUserFolder updated.
by Andrew Kenneth Milton 17 Sep '01

17 Sep '01

I have brought exUserFolder up to 2.4.x compatibility, exUserFolder is now at 0.6.0, the current release is considered stable. It also now uses fcrypt (included) when crypt can't be found on your system, for the default encryption of passwords. Some annoying little bugs were ironed out. A basic API Doc explaining what you need to do to create your own Auth and Property Sources is included. Alex Verstraeten contributed zodbAuthSource to the core list of Auth Sources available.

ZStyleSheet demonstration
by Adrian Hungate 16 Sep '01

16 Sep '01

There is now a very simple demonstration of ZStyleSheet in use available for downloading. It is packaged as a ZEXP file, which should be imported into a normal folder (It is NOT a product). The file is available from http://www.zope.org/Members/haqa/ZStyleSheet along with the latest version, which is required to run the demo. I hope this helps users a little, I will be continuing expanding this demo as I further develop ZStyleSheet. Adrian... -- Adrian Hungate Try Zope - http://www.zope.org - You might like it.

New version of ZStyleSheet
by Adrian Hungate 16 Sep '01

16 Sep '01

I have just uploaded version 4.2.0 of ZStyleSheet. This version adds support for Konqueror and MS Internet Explorer 6. There is a fix for a long standing bug, and I have finally added the ability to filter by browser version in addition to name. Feedback on the version filtering (As with all other things) is most welcome, I'm not sure this is the best way, I just can't see how else to present it. You can download the new version here - http://www.zope.org/Members/haqa/ZStyleSheet You can find the changelog here - http://www.zope.org/Members/haqa/ZStyleSheet/changes Adrian... -- Adrian Hungate Try Zope - http://www.zope.org - You might like it.

Fix to PatchKit Package-Patch
by Adrian Hungate 16 Sep '01

16 Sep '01

Pavel Zaichenko has discovered a bug in PatchKit (And fixed it for me - Thanks Pavel) which prevents Packaging a product using PatchKit if you use INSTANCE_HOME (As far as I can tell, this is the only situation where it would fail). Version 4.1.4 fixes this, and has a couple of other very small tweaks. The updated product is available from http://www.zope.org/Members/haqa/PatchKit Adrian... -- Adrian Hungate Try Zope - http://www.zope.org - You might like it.
